My name is liu Chaochun, a NUS PhD candidate. I can be contacted at

(phone) and <a href="http://www.sgcity.net/bbs/[email protected]" target="_blank" >[email protected]</A> (email) and my lab is in S15, #03-09, LELS Lab, School of Computing, NUS. 
<DIV class=Section1>

<UL type=disc>
<LI class=MsoNormal style="TEXT-JUSTIFY: inter-ideograph; COLOR: navy; LINE-HEIGHT: 150%; TEXT-ALIGN: justify">Students will work on the problems in pairs. The experiment will be conducted in my lab and will not last more than 1.5 hours. The problem is all related to everyday phenomena about air resistance. The problems are qualitative (that is, there are no numbers) and ask for explanation of phenomenon (such as why one object falls faster than the other in the air), but it is hoped that students can approach them from multiple and diverse perspectives instead of simply getting the answers right by applying Newton’s laws directly. You are encouraged to use Common sense and everyday experiences in explanation.


<LI class=MsoNormal style="TEXT-JUSTIFY: inter-ideograph; LINE-HEIGHT: 150%; TEXT-ALIGN: justify">Students should be studying physics and have learned Newton’s laws; they should be quite good at physics. They should be mentally active, extrovert and good at collaboration and articulation.


<LI class=MsoNormal style="TEXT-JUSTIFY: inter-ideograph; LINE-HEIGHT: 150%; TEXT-ALIGN: justify">Students should be in Sec 4, JC1 or JC2 and they should come in pairs to enhance quality of collaboration. This means that if you want to come, you should bring a partner who is also qualified.


<LI class=MsoNormal style="TEXT-JUSTIFY: inter-ideograph; LINE-HEIGHT: 150%; TEXT-ALIGN: justify">None of students’ personal particulars will be stored but the experiment will be video recorded for analysis. 
<LI class=MsoNormal style="TEXT-JUSTIFY: inter-ideograph; LINE-HEIGHT: 150%; TEXT-ALIGN: justify">They can arrange with me to come here at any convenient time. 
<LI class=MsoNormal style="TEXT-JUSTIFY: inter-ideograph; LINE-HEIGHT: 150%; TEXT-ALIGN: justify">As a token of appreciation, each student will be given $20 at the end of the experiment. As an added incentive, a maximum of an additional $10 (per student) will be given based on performance. The performance will be judged on the fruitfulness of the discussion, the number of ideas generated, and the quality and novelty of the ideas. </LI></UL>
概括一下，就是要物理好，英语好，善于表达与合作。物理好意味着不仅会做题（这里的题目与课本上完全不一样），更意味着头脑灵活，对物理现象有深入的理解。 </DIV>
