[LON-CAPA-users] Resources available- a question

[Lucas, Mark]

I sent this in yesterday with an attachment, but it didn't automatically make it through to the
list.

Anna,

One of the places to look for pointers to materials is the "Showntell" domain. This is a
separate domain that has some 'resources' that include a few sample problems, and most
importantly, a 'Welcome.html' page under each discipline that lists where some
pockets of problems are.  This will essentially give you a list of areas to start hunting in.

The other question is what text you are using, as there are some libraries out there
from textbooks publishers.

Thanks, Lars!
I currently use problems from a couple of publishers of books we use, but I am looking to expand the variety of problems available for use.
Your suggestions are appreciated!

Hi Anna,

The msuphysicslib and fsu/capalibrary are great - they has problems at the level you are requesting. Depending on the book you use, there may be some problems. Here are some libraries we use:

http://your.server.edu/res/fsu/capalibrary/
http://your.server.edu/res/msu/physicslib/msuphysicslib/
http://your.server.edu/res/msu/kashy/
http://your.server.edu/res/msu/kortemey/physicslib/
http://your.server.edu/res/pickerington/phscphysics/

There may also be some textbook specific libraries available. This is the case for some editios of these textbooks:

Cutnell and Johnson
Serway
Giancoli
Halliday and Resnick
etc?

Lars.

Hi everyone,
I am not new to LON-CAPA, but am new to this listserv.
I am wondering whether any of you have resources that you are willing to share/make accessible to our institution for algebra-based and calculus-based introductory physics at the college/university level?  If so, please send the info about your resources (what type of course they are designed for) and the path to your resources in the /res folders.
Thanks so much for your help!  It is greatly appreciated!
Anna
