Description

Class Experience

Please note: This class will run as a camp during the summer for 3 days a week for 5 weeks.  Please check the class schedule to see the meeting days/times.

This course will give students a solid understanding of the essential concepts in chemistry.  We will focus on a particular topic or series of topics each week with previous concepts being integrated into later topics when appropriate.  Material will be taught in the socratic method as much as possible along with examples and...

Students will learn the basic topics of general chemistry and have an understanding of how to do calculations and problems related to these topics.

I will provide optional practice sheets to reinforce concepts from class.  Students will also have the option of assigned reading from the e-textbook which will be around 6-10 pages per week.

After the first class, I will provide a file that includes the weekly worksheets for the class.  Students may print these out if they wish and fill them out during or after class.  We will go over the worksheets during class.  Students will also receive a homework booklet and answers after the first class.

Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.

Students will have the option of taking three assessments during the term.  Answers and explanations will be provided so the students will be able to check their understanding and see the reasons for any errors that they made.

1 hour per week in class, and an estimated 1 - 2 hours per week outside of class.

I will provide a copy of an e-textbook in PDF format to accompany the course after the first class meeting.  A PDF of the periodic table will also be included for students to use or they may use their own.
