Terminology Differences

Ugandan English = American EnglishProgress Assessment = Continuous AssessmentSteam = ClassDuster = eraserRevise = studyScheme of work = unit of work

Mark = grade

Exercise book = notebook

Exams/papers = tests

Quiz = Written Quiz

Stroke = slash

Guild = school governmentSlide3

Classroom culture

DemocraticStudents are groups of consisting of 5 people per groupClass rules will be determined with student inputEach group of students has a:Chair

Secretary

Presenter

Each class there will be 1 presentation by a randomly selected group on the topic of the session.

Determine groups (names) and hand in list of group members by next classSlide5

Student groups

The Chair leads the discussions of the group and verbally summarizes the information presented to the group for the secretary.The Secretary writes down the information the group is going to present. The information can be a solution to a problem, a summary of a specific topic,

ect

.

The

Presenter

leads the presentation to the class with the help from any member.

All members

have 1 vote and can not abstain from voting when unresolvable points of contention arise. (e.g. homework assignments)Slide6

Student ‘pet peeves’ (e.g. I dislike it when a tutor does…)

Class of 2014Poorly planned practical workHarassing students

Gives abrupt tests

Class of 2013

Eating while in the class room

Frequently or intentionally absenting themselves

Harassing students

Gives abrupt tests

Don’t bore usSlide7

Tutor Rules Of The Classroom

Tutor RulesStudents will ask questions by raising their hand.There are no penalties for being wrong during class room discussion.Students will act as professional students while in the classroomNO COPYING

(Students caught copying quizzes,

homeworks

,

praticals

or exams will receive a grade of 0% and possibly a 0% in the course).

Students will work together to solve problems in the classroom

The tutor will provide ample out-side class room study materials (e.g. handouts, identify texts in the library students can view for various topics, load information into the computer lab

There will be

short written quizzes

at the start of each class that starts at 2:30 pm and ends at 2:40 pm

exactly OR 7:30 am to 7:40 amSlide8

Student Rules Of The Classroom

Lecture should not miss lecture1 week for doing assignmentsTests are given ample classroom time to finish

No abrupt tests

Marks for coursework should be given in a timely manner (1 week)

No harassment

Tests should be within the limits course outline (syllabus)

Remedial should be allowed incase I fail my courseworkSlide9

Selected Institutional Requirements of Kyambogo

Students must attend 75% of the lectures to be able to sit for examinations.Progressive assessments carries 40% of total marksTests to contribute 30%Assignments or practical work to contribute 20%

Written examination

There are 3 papers a year that carry the other

6

0% of the total marksSlide12

Reports of Scientific Information

TitleIntroduction (Background of Physics Topic)Methods (Description of Experiment, Sometimes Raw Data)Results (Tables and Explanation)Conclusion (Significance of Results)Discussion (Future

Research or Problems Arising)

References Slide13

Summarizing Scientific Information

What are the main points (i.e. Laws, Equations)Who are these Laws or Equations named afterWhat applications of the information are interesting or possibleWhat are some common misconceptions or areas where mistakes happenWhat needed to be learned before this information is given (background)What can be learned next (future research areas, questions or lectures)Slide14

Taking notes in class

Summarize in your own words when possibleCopy some figures (I’ll let you know which ones)Try to take away the main point (Don’t sweat the details)Take note of information that is NOT intuitiveCopy reference sources for later investigationSlide15

Key points for taking notes

Do not write everything down said on the lectureWrite key points, summaries, main ideas, tricky parts, methods, ect.Pick a method for taking notes – more on methods later…Review notes shortly after lesson to condense and correct the notes

Write a question mark by things you do not understand

Ask a friend, tutor or lecturer later to explain

It is ok if you miss something

Take your own notes (don’t copy someone else's)

It is ok if no one else can understand your notesSlide16

Cornell note taking methodSlide17

Mapping note taking method

Connect related ideas by linesUse arrows to show directionSimilar to mind mappingMight not be great for math or physicsSlide18

Chart note taking method

Create columns on your paperLabel each column Good for keeping historic information Good for review of information

“d =

rt

” in the “Equation” column, “Find the uniform rate or distance; distance = rate x time” in the “Purpose” column and “20 miles = 10 miles per minute x 2 minutes” in the “Example column.”Slide19

End of lecture

questionWhat marks/grades should I be getting if I want second class?What marks/grades should I be getting if I want first class?What should I focus my studies on if I’m doing poorly in electro-magnetism?Name 2 types of note taking methods.Is it OK to use my own note taking method and incorporate a little of what I’ve learned today?Slide23
