Gloster's Recommendation Letter

457 Words2 Pages

I am extremely pleased to recommend Dr. Daniel Gloster’s 2016 MNS Divisional Award for Excellence in Teaching for Part-Time (Adjunct) Faculty. I had first met Dr. Gloster in the Spring 2016 semester when I was taking Chemistry 113.4. I was required to take Chemistry 113.4 to complete my double major in both Computer Science and Applied Mathematics. Ever since the first day, he had always came prepared to class and had impeccably followed the syllabus course schedule. During his lectures, he was able to give clear explanations and had always made sure to do examples with a student to see the application of the lesson. Despite his single minded focus to have students ace the ACS exam and his determination to teach chemistry the best he could, he always made sure to inform his students that he would do everything in his power to help them. Dr. Gloster was patient and had more than happily stayed a little longer with students after the lecture to clarify concepts covered in class. On top of that, …show more content…

During the Spring 2016 semester I was also taking Physics 146 and it proved to be the most intense course I had ever taken. However, Dr. Gloster’s lessons on unit dimension, the application of Coulomb’s Law to obtain the lattice energy of ions and the magnetic properties of diatomic molecules proved to be invaluable. It not only reinforced my knowledge of electricity and magnetism, but using unit analysis had facilitated me in both understanding the new units such as Tesla, Amperes, etc. that I encountered in my Physics 146 class. The unit analysis lectures proved be a vitally important as it allowed me to check my work on both Chemistry and Physics examinations. If it weren’t for Dr. Gloster’s lectures, I would go so far to say that I perhaps would have had a C instead of B in Physics 146 and I definitely wouldn’t be on 91st percentile in the

In this memo, I will introduce myself with my major, some of my background, why I am taking the English 341 course, and what I hope to get out of taking this course. In the Spring of 2012, I was admitted and enrolled in NMT for the study of physics with the astrophysics option. Recently, last semester, I dropped the astrophysics option and am now a general physics major primarily due to funding issues with the GI Bill. Prior to beginning my time at NMT, I served for nine years in the U.S. Army.

Lactose And Lactase Lab Report

666 Words | 3 Pages

Through this project, I got to analyze windmill sound data, collected by Dr. Andy Piacsek, to determine the noise level differences up and downwind. The Magnetic field worksheet was completed in my physics 183 class and it demonstrates my understanding about the magnetic fields that result from moving charges, and the net forces that result when a charge travels through a magnetic field. The matter waves worksheet, from modern physics 1, demonstrates my knowledge about particles behaving as waves, and about the probability density that show the location where electrons may be more likely found. The optics document attached demonstrated my knowledge about the resulting patterns of monochromatic light incident of single or double slits, and about the resolving power of lenses. The physics 182 exam attached demonstrates my ability to solve dynamics problems using the work-energy and impulse-momentum theorems.
