====== Changes for 2026 ====== Maybe remove the last three sections of each lab pending Faculty approval. ====== Archive Changes ======= ====== Changes for next year (NEW) ====== === Exo-Planet (2-14-2025) === - Grams shouldn't be abbreviated as "gm" pg. 69 === Exo-Planet (11-8-2024) === - Update number of exoplanets - Edit or remove Figure 11.1 (the one with a bunch of equations) - Add a table with ranges of values for each type of planet - Change / update the classifications for the planets === Galaxy Morph (11-8-2024) === - We're a bar galaxy (current refers to Sc) - Galaxy Morph length - Class e0 section might lead to a bit of redundancy === Hubble's Law === - From Julio - "the column listed as “redshift (angstroms)” might be misleading. Redshift is technically delta lambda/lambda_0 but the column is just looking for delta lambda. Might be a good idea to change the column's label to "delta lambda (angstroms)" to avoid confusion. === Kepler === - Clarification of string demo (video Hannah sent out) - Total number of points are currently 53. Not the usually 65. - Page Three - check metric prefix definitions for micro and nano - Confusion in the wording of question (last q) === Spectrum === - Clarification of bohr model ====== Changes for Specific Labs in the Manual (OLD) ====== - Kepler laws - flush out the understanding - Kepler laws - revert back to the NAAP UNL version (https://astro.unl.edu/naap/pos/animations/kepler.html) - Density - might need to be shorten to account for clean up - HR Diagram - change the wording "are a bit screwy" - HR Diagram - Add more examples of how HR Diagrams can be used. - Earth's Density - needs a solution that does not require roof access - Paleoclimate Lab - change to the revised version used in Nancy's Lab ====== General Lab Manual Changes ====== - Check for general spelling / grammar errors - Check for inclusive languages ====== Paleoclimate Lab ====== https://docs.google.com/document/d/1HwaPw5evnBb7hAN-ANFzTWnlNTPSvgVp9_N8I9K-rK8/edit ====== Completed Changes ====== - Understanding Spectra - section X.6 needs a new link seeing that UNL no longer has flash animations - Turns out the old link now works again! Sticking with the old link! ====== TA Lecture Slides ====== - Update slides to include more inclusive language (Kepler's Law, Sun Lab, etc). - Revert to a bare 'skeleton structure' - Incorporate Story Packages (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1oAWac2jrgfC7ds6rwdIx3bAv9OPbF-SeoWiaiM9ZM_U/edit#gid=604154895) as an additional resource to applicable labs.
