Universal law of karmā’s simplifying role & collateral takeaways in transitioning from Newton’s to Euler’s laws of motion, centres of mass, translational momentum, conservation of momentum: A packed foray into the enthralling kinetics of systems of particles & bodies, leading to the cause & effect conundrum resolution.
If learning ain’t DYNAMIC, it ain’t worth learning❣️ For more details on "🔟W⨒NGS: 🔟-Week🇮🇳Indian🧭Navigation✈️for🐝Georgiatech🎓Students," releasing🎬this🌻summer, check out the following blog on the Georgia Tech Study Abroad Program in India: [ Ссылка ]
Leveraging & sustaining the initial enthusiasm of students in planning ahead to be ever-ready enables the learning process to be far more efficient. Further aiding such efficiency is our small class size, which is an extremely rare privilege these days for all of us. Hence, we’ll take the fullest advantage of this golden opportunity.
The syllabus for AE2220 is the standard that’s on the Georgia Tech portals. Nonetheless, we’ll explore it far more innovatively to not only render ourselves ready for the rapidly-evolving aerospace industry employment scenarios (influenced by AI, large language models & prompt engineering) but, more importantly, to enjoy learning together so much so that the students will be thirsty for other engineering mechanics/dynamics-related courses & electives in future semesters. This can happen much better collaboratively rather than competitively. A student’s only competition in this course will be with his/her own past.
Hence, the assessment pattern will also be conducive to the above vision. Integral part of the learning package are very short homework modules at the end of almost every class, to be worked out together as a group, leveraging any relevant resources available/accessible to registered GT students (including soft copies of books from GT library via VPN, internet sources, apps &, most significantly, GPT-4!) & interactively presented at the beginning of the very next class as a team, with instantaneous feedback for better understanding & improvised future assignments. Quintessentially, the assessment will be an integral part of OUR learning process, not just YOURS! This is explained in more detail in this very first video of this series.
Tech is historically famous for its legendary dynamicists. Our lectures will be an improvised & extended live re-enactment of the unforgettable interactive sessions on the basics of dynamics, through which I so joyfully learnt from a legend who’s no more: Prof Dewey Harper Hodges at Georgia Tech. Video recordings of our lectures will be readily accessible to you on YouTube: [ Ссылка ]
See y’all week after week, with or without vlog lag! As you pack your bags for the ten-week bhāratīya (Indian) sojourn, I wish y’all a safe flight to namma béṅgalūrū (as we locals love to call our city!), an enjoyable stay on the IISc campus & of course the cultural experience during the consecutive long weekends, as the icing on the cake.
I’m sure your enthusiasm in planning ahead to be ever ready will enable our learning process together to be far more efficient. Further aiding such an efficiency is our small class size of just eight students, which is an extremely rare privilege these days for all of us. Hence, we’ll take the fullest advantage of this golden opportunity. In CC is the GTA for our class, Singepogu Chinnababu, one of my PhD students &, more importantly, a very friendly & helpful human being.
As I mentioned over our inaugural Teams meeting for the GT SAP which some of you attended, no text books are required & the syllabus is the standard that’s on the Georgia Tech portals. Nonetheless, we’ll explore it far more innovatively to not only make ourselves ready for the rapidly-evolving employment scenarios (influenced by AI, large language models, prompt engineering etc.) but, more significantly, to enjoy learning together so much so that you’ll be thirsty for other structures-related courses & electives in future semesters. This can happen much better collaboratively rather than competitively. The only competition in this course will be with the past of yourself.
Hence, the assessment pattern will also be conducive to the above vision. You’ll have no exams whatsoever but very short assignments that I’ll allocate during the relevant classes. These assignments ought to be worked out by all eight of you together as a group, leveraging any relevant resources available/accessible to you (including soft copies of books from GT library via VPN, internet sources, apps &, most significantly, GPT-4o/GEMINI/Perplexity/CoPilot/OlaKrutrim/BharatGPT/hanooman etc!) & interactively presented at the beginning of the very next week as a team, with instantaneous feedback for better understanding & improvised future assignments.
