화학에 초점을 맞춘 AP 환경 과학
이 9개 모듈로 구성된 과정은 College Board가 정한 AP 환경 과학 프레임워크를 밀접하게 따르도록 설계되었으며, 환경 시스템에 적용되는 화학 개념의 통합에 특히 중점을 두고 있습니다.

This course explores the interconnections between chemical principles and environmental science, offering a thorough investigation of key environmental issues such as pollution, energy production, resource management, and sustainability. The course will cover the chemistry behind processes such as air and water pollution, climate change, and renewable energy. It is structured to provide students with a robust understanding of environmental science and chemistry, fulfilling a (homeschool) high-school science credit. Additionally, this course aligns with the AP Environmental Science (APES) standards. Students who are motivated may opt to take the AP Environmental Science exam at the conclusion of the course. The course provides the foundational knowledge and skills necessary for the exam, though additional independent study may be required. This course seamlessly integrates the *Big Ideas from AP Chemistry* into environmental contexts ensuring learners are well-prepared for both the AP Environmental Science exam and have a deep understanding of chemistry’s role in environmental systems. Big Idea 1: Structure and properties of matter (e.g., pollutants in the atmosphere) Big Idea 2: Chemical reactions and energy (e.g., combustion, acid-base reactions) Big Idea 3: Chemical equilibrium and kinetics (e.g., chemical cycles in nature, pollution breakdown) AP Exam Readiness: This course is designed to closely follow the AP Environmental Science framework set by the College Board, with specific attention to the integration of chemistry concepts as they apply to environmental systems. While this course alone does not guarantee success on the AP exam, it provides a strong basis in environmental science, aligning with the 9 APES units. Students aiming to take the AP exam are supported with optional additional resources, such as practice exams, free-response questions, and test prep recommendations.

교사 전문성 및 자격증
I am an experienced educator and environmental professional with a master’s degree in environmental management and over 15 years of college-level teaching experience in science and chemistry. My background includes working in regulatory compliance and industrial chemistry, where I gained practical, real-world insights that inform my teaching. Having transitioned from college-level instruction to corporate training, I now teach industrial process chemistry to professionals, blending academic expertise with industry applications. This diverse experience makes me exceptionally qualified to teach AP Environmental Science, equipping high school students with the knowledge and skills needed for success in college-level coursework and beyond.리뷰
