As a new experiment to enhance outside-classroom learning and peer-discussion, we have started a course blog --- phys272.blogspot.com

- discuss topics related to electromagnetism of interests to this class
- share interesting links/articles about electromagnetism with the class
- bring up/discuss topics related to electromagnetism that you want to hear more or need more help with
- encourage peer-help and peer-discussion among the class members and facilitate an online learning community outside the classroom
Note this blog is NOT a venue to send specific or personal questions/queries/requests/complaints to instructors/TAs (who may not check this blog regularly) ---- instead please contact them directly to get faster responses.
The comments are currently un-moderated (and you can comment anonymously). Please use standard online etiquette when posting comments on this blog, and do not post contents/comments unrelated to electromagnetism and PHYS 272.
