Many students have been asking how they might be able to prepare for Matter and Motion.

• For sure, look over the Math Resources page.
• If you can obtain your textbooks, you can start reading them (at the Math Resources page, we’ve made available -for now- the first chapter of the calculus text).
• A different thing you might like to try out is to look over Learning How to Learn: Powerful mental tools to help you master tough subjects. This free on-line course that started on August 21 (but with archived lectures still available) offers advice on how to learn, with particular relevance to learning math and science, based on up-to-date research in cognitive science and learning theory.

A set of Math Resources is available at this link or via the navigation bar.

• You can access the Student Survey here or using the link in the navigation bar above.
• Please answer these questions to help us get to know you better.
• You can’t easily save your responses in the on-line form, so compose your responses in a separate file, then copy and paste into the appropriate space on this form; please use simple formatting.
• Make sure to save a copy of your responses which will serve as good source material for Self-Evaluations and Academic Statements.

• You can find (very) detailed information about chemistry, math, and physics textbooks and online homework systems at this link, or using the navigation menu.
• We very much encourage you to contact us about strategies for managing the cost of textbooks.

The Contact Faculty link on the navigation menu above may not work. Please feel free to contact faculty member Krishna Chowdary via email at chowdark@evergreen.edu, regarding any questions you may have about the program. Thank you.

Please note this is schedule is slightly different than what was described as the tentative schedule in the Academic Fair Handout. Most notably, we have a longer break on Thursdays, which now ends at 2.

Students with previous background in calculus or chemistry are encouraged to take the full 16 credit program as the integration of calculus, chemistry, and physics enhances learning in all subject areas. However, students who have successfully earned credit in college-level general chemistry with lab with satisfactory achievement or better may consider a partial credit option: 10 credits in calculus and physics. Students interested in this option should register for the full 16 credits, then contact faculty Krishna Chowdary to discuss the reduced credit option.

Students interested in this partial credit option will be asked:

• If they took general chemistry here at Evergreen, to provide their evaluation (both program description and the faculty evaluation of their work).
• If they took college gen chem somewhere else (for example community college), to provide as much of the following information as they can provide: where they took it, when they took it, their professor’s name, the course description, what textbook they used, and what their final course grades were.
