ONLINE TUTORING
in the Discipline,
PHYSICAL SCIENCES
(including Astronomy and Earth Science)
Online instructional support in the PHYSICAL
SCIENCES involves tutoring and faculty office hours
to help students with concepts, homework assignments, exam preparations,
and term projects through chat rooms, message boards, and a Frequently-Asked-Questions
(FAQ) search engine. To obtain help in prerequisites and corequisites
to courses in the Physical Sciences, please choose the appropriate
discipline in the table of contents to the left.
You may search for key information or answers to
your questions through online-tutoring's data base of FAQ.
Only students registered for online tutoring have access to this
facility.
Tutors are available throughout the week. To reach
a tutor, choose online tutoring schedule. A weekly calendar
will appear in a popup window. The initials of tutors will be in
time slots when they are scheduled to be online. The caption to
the calendar identifies each tutor by name. The initials are linked
to the tutor's chat room and message board through a biography page.
Members of the Physical Sciences Faculty who have
chosen to chosen to conduct some of their office hours online for
their students can be accessed through the link to Online Faculty
Office Hours. You must obtain a username and password from your
instructor to use this feature.
As an option, you may post your question(s) to the
message board of a tutor or instructor if that person is not online
to conduct a chat room at the time you need help. You should find
a response to your question in a timely manner. Just as the FAQ
search engine and chat rooms, the message boards are password protected.
