AI Thread Summary
Suggestions for improving the Tutorial Board include reducing the visibility of Moved Threads to enhance user experience and updating the outdated Directory to reflect all available tutorials for easier access. Additionally, there is a proposal to separate member-created tutorials from external PDF links, which would streamline the content organization. The creation of more specific sub-forums, such as Maths and Chemistry Tutorials, is also recommended for better navigation. These changes aim to make the board more user-friendly and efficient for members seeking resources. Overall, implementing these suggestions could significantly enhance the functionality of the Tutorial Board.

Err, I just want to make some suggestions to improve our Tutorial Board a little bit:
  1. As it may seem, the board is filled with Moved Threads, and it almost takes the whole first page. I mean, if there is some way to make all the Moved Threads, it would be better.
  2. And also, the Directory in each board seems rather out-of-date. There are like twenties tutorials there, but the Directory only lists a few of them. If someone can update the Directory, I think the members can find what they need without having to look page to page, and hence faster.
  3. There are some tutorials from our members, and also some links of PDF files from the other sites, too. Is it possible that we just split up the two? We will move the PDF files will go to our Link reference (the button on the Flash menu), and we keep the member-made turoials there, in the Turotial Board. This should reduce the number of pages in each board considerably.
  4. And last but not least, if possible, I think there should be some more sub-forums like Maths Tutorials, and Chemistry Tutorials. Just for easy look-up.
Okay, that's it.
Just my 2 cents. o:)
 
Physics news on Phys.org
The Link section isn't getting a lot of activity at all :(

I still post in the resource threads of the forums.
 
I want to thank those members who interacted with me a couple of years ago in two Optics Forum threads. They were @Drakkith, @hutchphd, @Gleb1964, and @KAHR-Alpha. I had something I wanted the scientific community to know and slipped a new idea in against the rules. Thank you also to @berkeman for suggesting paths to meet with academia. Anyway, I finally got a paper on the same matter as discussed in those forum threads, the fat lens model, got it peer-reviewed, and IJRAP...
About 20 years ago, in my mid-30s (and with a BA in economics and a master's in business), I started taking night classes in physics hoping to eventually earn the science degree I'd always wanted but never pursued. I found physics forums and used it to ask questions I was unable to get answered from my textbooks or class lectures. Unfortunately, work and life got in the way and I never got further the freshman courses. Well, here it is 20 years later. I'm in my mid-50s now, and in a...
