LOG IN and LOG
OUT
Some of the on-line activities (homework, gradebook,
etc.) for this course run on a secure server and must be logged into.
Students enrolled in (and staff associated with) the course must log in
using their Parkland NetID
and their NetID password. If you
are not enrolled, you can log into many of the secure activities using guest
as your NetID and guest as your password.
(Enrolled students should avoid using the guest login since credit is not
recorded for guest.) You should always log out of the secure server
at the end of your work session. Secure server Log In and Log Out links are
located at the bottom of this and subsequent menu pages.

SPECIAL
RELATIVITY
Special Relativity is at the heart of electromagnetism. Magnetic fields
would not exist in a non-relativistic world! For fun, take a look at Special
Relativity in 14 Easy Lessons. It's not required material, but we may
discuss some of the "lessons" from time to time. You're likely to
find that it's easier than many of the other subjects we cover in class.
