Survey of Chemistry
-
The Survey of Chemistry course is designed not to teach chemistry in the classic sense, but to show how chemistry impacts our lives on a daily basis. Some basic tenets of chemistry will be discussed but the emphasis will be on investigating - either in the lab or on the internet - how chemistry influences our daily lives. Possible topics include cosmetics, global warming, energy drinks. The goal is to help the students to learn how to evaluate claims made in the news, ads etc.
