{{page>courses:prereq20:cfpre:cfmbprecov}}

===== In-class Content =====

  * [[swbq:mmsw:cfindependentvariable|Change the Independent Variable]] (SWBQ: 15 min) (This was kind of more like a SGA.)
  * [[swbq:mmsw:cfdependentvariable|Change the Dependent Variable]] (SWBQ: 10 min) (We skipped this in 2017 for time.)

===== Additional Content =====

  * Reading/Lecture: FIXME [[http://physics.oregonstate.edu/coursewikis/LinAlgBook/book/linalg/ch9|QMSHO]] (Lecture: 25 min)
  * [[..:..:activities:cfact:cfmbhermiteone|A Hermite Polynomial]] (SGA) //20 min//

===== Student performance =====

Here are some notes regarding students' performance on the quiz in 2018, which covered change of variables (from Karan, who graded the quiz):

  - Since, Weihong mentioned in class that second derivative is not the Square of the first derivative, there were only 2 students who did that. 
  - There were still a majority (~8-9) students who zapped the equation TWICE to get d^2 operator. 
  - Then there were some students (~4-5) who tried using chain rule and messed up on the second derivative. 
  - Students who were correctly able to change the first and second derivatives ran out of time/ made algebra mistakes. For those students, I didn't take any points off.
