| Catalog Course Description: | |||||||||
| A continuation of ENS 1310 - Particle Dynamics, dealing with the kinetics and kinematics of Rigid Bodies rather than particles. Also covered are such topics as centers of mass and mass movements of inertia. | |||||||||
| Entry Level Standards: | |||||||||
| Students entering this course should be adept to applying mathematical techniques involving calculus to the solution of problems. They must have a knowledge of particle dynamics. | |||||||||

| III. Instructional Processes*: | |||||||||
| Students will: | |||||||||
| 1. | Participate in classroom discussions which challenge their abilities to think creatively and visualize complex spatial and mathematical relationships to solve problems. Problem Solving and Decision Making Outcome, Active Learning Strategy | ||||||||
| 2. | Discuss the importance of personal qualities such as personal responsibility, time management principles, self-esteem, sociability, self-management, integrity and honesty in school and in the workplace, and dynamics of change in the workplace. Personal Development Outcome, Cultural Diversity and Social Adaptation Outcome, Transitional Strategy | ||||||||
| *Strategies and outcomes listed after instructional processes reference Pellissippi State’s goals for strengthening general education knowledge and skills, connecting coursework to experiences beyond the classroom, and encouraging students to take active and responsible roles in the educational process. | |||||||||

| VI. Policies: | |||||||||
| A. Attendance Policy: | |||||||||
| Pellissippi
State Technical Community College expects students to attend all scheduled
instructional activities. As a minimum, students in all courses must
be present for at least 75 percent of their scheduled class and laboratory
meetings in order to receive credit for the course (Pellissippi State Catalog).
Individual departments/programs/disciplines, with the approval of the vice
president of Academic and Student Affairs, may have requirements that are
more stringent.
Regular attendance in this course is required. Students who miss the equivalent of 10% of classroom hours may, at the discretion of the instructor, be dropped one letter grade. Students who arrive late for class after the roll has been called have the responsibility of seeing the instructor after class to change their status from A (absent) to T (tardy). |
|||||||||
| B. Academic Dishonesty: | |||||||||
| The policy stated in the Student Handbook (found in the PSTCC catalog) will be followed in the event of cheating. | |||||||||
