Welcome!
The Practicals are mandatory weekly 3-hour
sessions in which you will get together in teams
of 2 or 4 to work on hands-on activities,
experimental measurements and error analysis and
computer simulations.
What you do in Practicals will be directly related to what
is going on in class, and is designed to help you succeed on
the tests and exam. Practicals are sometimes called
"labratorials", as they combine traditional aspects of both
laboratories and tutorials.
