Announcements

Mastering Chemistry homework #7 is posted it is due Thursday by 11 pm.

 

Final Exam Friday July 29 at 10:00 AM

 

SI review session Thursday July 28 at 10 am in SCI W3009.

 

Schedule

 Class meets M-F  11 am to 1 pm in AH N126.  Class starts June 23 and goes until July 27.  July 4 & 5 are holidays.

There are three different Lab groups all meet in SCI E3023

            Each group meets twice a week. There will be lab each scheduled meeting time, including the first day of class, June 23.

 

Supplemental Instruction (SI) Sessions will meet most Tuesdays and Fridays from 9:00 am to 10:30 am in SCI W3009. (optional)

            SI will not meet:  Friday June 24,  Tuesday July 5 (obviously).

 

Study time—the recommended amount of study time is a minimum 2 hours for each hour in class (4 hours per day beyond class and lab time).  This must be done regularly (between classes). Many short (1 hour) sessions often work better than one long one.  Delaying to the weekend (or test) will only increase the needed study time and make class time less effective. Use the same calculator for practice that you will use on tests and quizzes.

            Possible study time activities:  Review/rewrite notes checking against text for accuracy and completeness; List vocabulary, formulas or anything else that must be memorized and make flash cards; Work and rework in-class examples, in-text examples, end-of-chapter problems and mastering chemistry problems relevant to the day’s material (without looking at the answers); Check your answers against the key at the end of text or solutions manuals in library; Guess what questions might be on the daily quiz, create your own quiz and make sure you know the answers; Pretend you will be allowed one page of “help” for the next quiz/test, decide what you would put on it, how you would organize it...then do it (but you won’t actually get to use it on a quiz or TEST!); Visit the tutor center for help with anything that is unclear; Use other chemistry texts for more example problems or different ways of seeing the information (this class hasn’t changed much in 10 years, check out libraries, the tutor center, what you can buy for a dollar from Amazon...); email me if you have something to add to this list.

Final Exam is Friday, July 29 from 10 am to noon.
