Student's will be expected to attend 4 hours of lecture each week (a 1-hour lecture on Tuesday and a 3-hour lecture on Thursday) and the linked 3 hour lab (CRN 15367) that follows the Tuesday lecture in person each week.  Lectures will be interactive and designed to help learning and measure understanding.  This information will be used to guide the speed of content and delivery methods.  Therefore student participation will be key to instruction.  

Textbook: Chemistry: An Atoms Focused Approach, 4th Ed - the same textbook which is used for CH 221Z, CH 222Z, and CH 223Z will be used for this course. You need to make sure that you have access to the Smartwork homework system with the textbook.  You may wait to purchase this until the first week of class.

Since the class content will be delivered via D2L and online homework is required, an internet connection is required. A webcam is not required. 

Homework will be completed using Norton Smartwork. Students will need to purchase access to this platform. Please wait for the syllabus or talk to the instructor before purchasing.

No show policy

Your instructor can mark you as a "no show" if you do not participate in your class during the first week. This will remove you from the class.
