INST 154: Apollo at 50
Spring 2020
Online Class Session 22
Must be Completed by Tuesday April 23 at 6:15 PM

There is no intro video for this session. After completing the reading you can complete the other requirements in any order, but the recommended order is to first take the reading quiz, then watch the lecture video, and then contribute to the discussion board. You must complete all parts of this by 6:15 PM on the date listed for this class session in the schedule.

Term Paper Outline

If you plan to write a term paper, please don't forget that your term paper outline should be uploaded to ELMS by 6:15 PM on April 23!

Readings

As has been the case all semester, each student is assigned one reading for every class. Sometimes the "reading" is actually a video. Your assigned reading is based on your student number at your table (if you do not know your student number, you can find it on the table roster on the ELMS home page). You must do this before doing anything else for this class session.

Reading Quiz

This is a one-question open book quiz. Answer the one question only for the reading (or video) that you were assigned (it will ask you to confirm that you don't wish to answer the other questions; say yes). You can only take this quiz once, and you must complete it within 15 minutes of starting it. You can only take this quiz once.

Lecture Video

There are five videos for this week. No classroom video is available for this session, so these videos were recorded specifically for this online class session. You need to watch all five of them (they are each short).

Discussion Questions

These are the two questions that you should contribute to answering on your table's discussion board [login required] (if you don't know your table number, see the list on our classes ELMS home page). The goal here is to contribute to the discussion, not just to offer your own answer, so craft your responses in the context of any answers that are already there. Indicate with the question number which parts of your contribution refer to each question. You may also more generally comment on the topic of the session if you like. Note that you will only get credit for original contributions that don't repeat (or simply agree or disagree) with comments previously posted on the same questions. If you have questions about any of the content of this session (e.g., the readings or the lecture) you can also include your questions to us on your table's discussion board and we'll answer them there during our regular class times (which is when we expect to be reading your discussion board posts). You can, of course, also send us email with any questions any time and we'll get back to you more quickly than we will to questions left on your discussion board.
Below here you will find other materials that you might find useful.

Additional Materials: apollo17.org Web Site

This is the video that we would have shown before class. This is the Apollo 17 counterpart of the Apollo 11 and 13 Web sites that we have used in this course. This one lacks the mission control audio, but you will find the layout and controls to be familiar.

Additional Materials: People Who Might Have Walked on the Moon

This is an article I wrote some time back about people who might have walked on the Moon, but didn't. I also have a Web site that lists people who talked to someone on the Moon.

Additional Materials: Slides

These are the slides that were used in the lectures (which are also shown within the Panopto viewer).
