Role of activity in your course | These are assigned to get people a little more involved (hands-on!) than the ordinary homework problems. They may not be subject the the usual numerical evaluations, they're used in a context in which that doesn't matter. |
What students might learn from this course or activity | Among other things, they get much needed exposure to a world of physical models, hardware, and manual manipulation rather than the sanitized world of digital simulation. |
Special tools, equipment or software needed | As specified in individual items. Cost are very modest. |
URLs | None |
Safety precautions, possible permissions necessary | No special hazards present themselves - as far as I can see. |
Miscellaneous advice - pitfalls to avoid | Don't get too judgmental! |
Description | These problems are in addition to the end-of-chapter ones in "Comparative Biomechanics, 2nd edition. They're more open ended and may require a little more manipulation of household materials than the ones in the book. |
