Welcome to Bioelectricity Week 1
Welcome to Bioelectricity Week 1, the first week of this eight-week course. This first week brings some exciting topics such as what happens when you throw your computer in the ocean (smile), and also some fundamentals on the rules of electricity in solutions. Please keep your thoughtful imagination with you at all times. Together we will liberate this fascinating subject from the box in the closet where it has been kept hidden away for the last 200 years :)
The normal sequence of things to do this week is to watch the week's videos and then to answer the week's questions. You are free however to do videos and questions in any order or to go back and forth. You can do the quiz more than one time, and if you do the highest score is the only one that counts. It is up to you to find what works best for the way you think and for your study style. You will, however, get far more from this course by working on the questions than if you simply listen to the lectures. Somehow it is when you try to answer questions that you really engage your brain :)
Please begin this first week of the course by clicking on "Start Here!" near the top in the menu in the column on the left. There you will see step by step instructions telling you what to do next.
Thank you for enrolling. This course will be an adventure, intriguing and productive. Once again, welcome! Let's get started.
