Problem solving is a complex process valuable in everyday life and crucial for learning in the STEM fields. To support the development of problem-solving skills it is important for researchers and curriculum developers to have practical tools that can measure the difference between novice and expert problem-solving performance in authentic classroom work. It is also useful if such tools can be employed by instructors to guide their pedagogy. We describe the design, development, and testing of a simple rubric to assess written solutions to problems given in undergraduate introductory physics courses. In particular, we present evidence for the validity, reliability, and utility of the instrument. The rubric identifies five general problem-solving processes and defines the criteria to attain a score in each: organizing problem information into a Useful Description, selecting appropriate principles (Physics Approach), applying those principles to the specific conditions in the problem (Specific Application of Physics), using Mathematical Procedures appropriately, and displaying evidence of an organized reasoning pattern (Logical Progression).

Rubric scores from (a) 160 student solutions and (b) 159 solutions written by an instructor or taken from a textbook solution manual. This rubric was identical to the final rubric but used a maximum score of 4.

Graph of score agreement (weighted kappa) for two raters as a function of number of solutions scored for eight problems. The solutions were scored sequentially in time. The ninth data point is a rescoring of the first problem initially scored as the first data point.

Written with the goal of giving students a thorough understanding of the basic concepts of physics in all its aspects, the text uses interesting applications to biology, medicine, architecture, and digital technology to show students how useful physics is in their own everyday lives and in their future professions.

Soils feed the world, provide clean water, and represent one of the most important scalable solutions to climate change. Soils are also the most biodiverse habitats on earth, containing a vast array of microbes and a multi-level food web. Soil scientists are on the front-lines of fighting climate change, developing resilient food production systems, and reversing environmental degradation through restoration and regeneration of soils.

The Soil and Crops Sciences major with a concentration in Soil Science and Environmental Solutions applies fundamental principles and techniques in soil science to solving complex, real-world environmental sustainability challenges. Students learn how the interactions of plants, the microbiome, and the soil food web with the soil's physical and chemical environment support life on earth, improve water quality, and impact our climate. Our students receive hands-on interdisciplinary training from world leaders in soil-related research, so they are equipped to be change-makers, applying cutting-edge science to real-world challenges.

An introduction to fundamental concepts and topics in quantum mechanics. Topics include the Schrdinger equation, wave functions, probability, the uncertainty principle, stationary states, one-dimensional potentials, Hilbert space and formal operator methods, the hydrogen atom, spin and angular momentum, and identical particles and entanglement. Analytical and computational solutions to the Schrdinger equation will be developed. Quantum information science and its applications will also be explored. mechanics.

Prerequisite(s): PHYS 2400 Introduction to Modern Physics, CMPSC 1100 Python Programming I and MATH 2600 Calculus III or MATH 3100 Differential Equations.

(Normally offered even spring semesters.)

An introduction to modern physics: the post-Newtonian developments of quantum mechanics and Einsteinian relativity, with focus on special relativity, the atomic and nuclear structure of matter, and the foundations of quantum physics. Principles of modern physics will be approached through the contexts of the historical developments and classic experiments that brought them to light. The laboratory experience incorporates experiments and computer-based investigations, with emphasis on the development of laboratory skills including detectors and measurement techniques, laboratory journaling, data analysis, and reporting of results. Practical aspects of nuclear radiation detection and safety will also be covered.

Three lectures per week.

One laboratory per week.

Prerequisite(s): PHYS 1700 Principles of Physics II or PHYS 2100 General Physics II, and MATH 1610 Calculus II or permission of the instructor.

The online version of the Nebraska Wesleyan University catalog supersedes any printed catalog or PDF version as the official catalog of NWU. NWU reserves the right to make changes in the regulations and offerings announced in this official online version, as circumstances require. It is expected that the only changes will be the correction of errors and the inclusion of new courses and programs approved during the academic year.

This FAQ answers common questions about how Oracle achieves resilience and continuous availability of ourcore infrastructure services and hosting platform. Customers of Oracle Cloud might be interested in theseanswers for several reasons:

The data plane of a service is the collection of data-processing interfaces andcomponents that implement the functionality of the service that is intended to be used byapplications. For example, the virtual cloud network (VCN) data plane includes the networkpacket processing system, virtualized routers, and gateways, while the Block Volumes data planeincludes the implementation of the iSCSI protocol and the fault-tolerant replicated storagesystem for volume data.

For all types of service, we use the same set of engineering principles to achieve resilienceand availability, because the fundamental engineering challenges of building fault-tolerant,scalable, distributed systems are the same for all types of service.

To handle software bugs and mistakes by operators that have relatively localized effects, wefollow the principles of recovery-oriented computing1. At a high level, this meansthat rather than trying to guarantee that we never have a problem (which is impossible to test),we focus on handling any problems unobtrusively, in a way that can be tested. In particular, wefocus on minimizing mean time to recovery (MTTR), which is a combination of mean time to detect,mean time to diagnose, and mean time to mitigate.

To deal with bugs and mistakes that might have broader effects, we build mechanisms to minimizethe "blast radius" of any issues. That is, we focus on minimizing the number of customers,systems, or resources that are affected by any issues, including the particularly challengingissues of multitenant "noisy neighbors," offered overload, degraded capacity, and distributedthrash. We achieve this by using various isolation boundaries and change-management practices(see the following sections).

The guarantee is that, in a given availability domain, resources in at most one fault domain arebeing changed at any point in time. If something goes wrong with the change process, some or allof the resources in that fault domain might be unavailable for a while, but the other faultdomains in the availability domain aren't affected. Each availability domain contains at leastthree fault domains, in order to allow quorum-based replication systems (for example, OracleData Guard) to be hosted with high availability within a single availability domain.
