Here is a rough outline of the expected structure of the course. Since this is a new course expect some variation from what you see here. I hope to post the readings the week before the lectures to allow you to read the text before class.
The labs are more of less fixed due to the logistics of keeping Physics 100 and Physics 200 labs in sync (both courses share the same labs).
