Dear Professor,
So far, I am really enjoying the class. I think the main focus of the course of being critical towards the mass media messages is very useful. By questioning, one can not only filter false information but one can certainly get closer to the solution of a problem.
The methodology of approaching an issue with a project seems very helpful and successful to me for I can submerge myself in one problem and acquire a 360 degree understanding of it. Yet while I learn profoundly about one subject, the knowledge of the other problems remain superficial; specially if one does not have a solid foundation in scientific subjects. That is why I would recommend setting up a blog that everyone would have access too and for all powerpoint presentations to posted there after they were held. Consequently if doubts or questions remain, one can use the other presentations as tools to gain better understanding on subjects that one did not present and to calm any doubts. In that matter, we are all not only helping each other by building a network of information that everyone can rely on but also connecting all the issues on a platform enable to gain a good overview of the course.
Thank you so much. Enjoy the rest of your weekend.
Sincerely,
Andre

Good reflections on the week. Good suggestions -- I will promote the discussion board as a way to share info among the class. I also need to emphasize that students should read the sections related to the problems the other groups are working on, as well as their own group.
I also wanted a discussion of force, energy, power in this week's blog. Also, CO2 vs N2 as greenhouse gas. You can go ahead and add that in another entry.
