The first thing we did in class today was checked the graphic organizer over Vectors. Next we got two worksheets, one labeled "Pondering Speed" and the other "Reaction Time Computer Simulation". The homework for tonight was to finish the "Operational Definitions" sheet on page 11 in our lab manual, if you didn’t finish it in class. Also, we started the "Pondering Speed" worksheet. This is not graded for accuracy but for explanation of the question. This sheet should be brought to class on Wednesday. This is a video explaining the computer simulation worksheet. The video is halfway down on the page and everything after that, we haven’t learned. The video explains exactly what we did.

In class we did the "Reaction Time Computer Simulation" worksheet and started the "Pondering Speed" worksheet as a group. The Reaction Time worksheet was completed in class and turned in. The Pondering Speed worksheet consisted of 4 questions that all incorporated speed into the problems. They are multiple choice questions but you are to explain how you got to your answer below.
There is a test scheduled for tomorrow, Tuesday 9/13 over the unit circle, Bernoulli's Principle, and vectors.
Question of the Day: What common source of error in the lab did we discuss today? What is one way of minimizing its effect?
Answer: The common source of error in the lab that we discussed today is the influence of human error. I think that you can minimize the effect by the use of computer technology and math.
