 ==== Kick Off Questions ====
+  - What is the loop rule equation? When using the loop rule, what is a "loop"?
+  - What is the node rule equation? When using the node rule, what is a "node"?
+  - What steps do you need to follow to use the loop & node rules to solve a circuit? (Hint: these were in the readings)

 ==== Wrap Up Questions ====
-  - How can you tell if two resistors are in series? Out of current, resistance, & voltage, what would HAVE to be the same for resistors in series? What would be different?
+  - When using the loop rule, how do you decide if you have a voltage gain or a voltage drop for a battery?  What about for a resistor?
-  - How can you tell if two resistors are in parallel? Out of current, resistance, & voltage, what would HAVE to be the same for resistors in parallel? What would be different?
+  - How would you explain the node rule conceptually? (e.g. in plain English to a roommate or someone not in this class)
-  - How would you combine resistors (series or parallel) to decrease the total resistance? What about to increase the resistance?
+  - How would you explain the loop rule conceptually? (e.g. in plain English to a roommate or someone not in this class)
-  - What is the loop rule in circuits? What conservation principle is it related to?
+  - When using the loop and node rules, you end up with more equations than the number of unknowns. How do you pick which equations to use?
-  - What is the node rule in circuits? What conservation principle is it related to?
-  - What steps do you need to follow in order to use loop/node rules?
