Quick! Watt is unit of...?

Today is the final class for the summer quarter. We'll give out the final exam and have a speaker and then that will be it for ECT 1 until Fall.

It amazes me how much my brain cranked out over the past 5 weeks. There's so much material the students had to read that I couldn't read it and write lab procedures and help during class and look for a full time permanent position. So most times I was going from the memory of tutoring or when I did the work last in college. Concept-wise, I am a nerd and read Physics, construction, and electronics books/articles for fun so jumping in to help was fine. I remembered a suprising amount of formulae and I helped the students learn alot which makes me happy. They will all be so ready once College Physics in Fall 2012 or 2013.

I was trying to remember all the different concepts and formulae I helped students understand over the past 5 weeks and here's what I came up with so far(in no particular order):

• Laws of Thermodynamics
• Ohm's Law (the triangle!)
• Reading resistor bands by colour
• Inductance
• Capacitance
• Drawing and reading basic schematics
• Parallel and Series Circuits
• Kirchoff's Voltage Law
• Force-vector equations
• Bernouli's Formula/Pressure
• Frequency and Waves
  
• Low-Emissivity Windows
• Photovolteics
• Insulation types and Thermal Conductivity
• Heat Transfer
• Energy Efficient Lighting
• Calculating Power costs
• AC/DC motors
• Radiation
• Specific Heat
• Phase Change
• ...and probably some things I've missed

Y'know I feel like if I can help students learn these formulae and keep a classroom of teenagers in order I ought to be a pretty decent project manager, or at least assistant right?
