Welcome to the World of Chemistry!
I. Course Description:
This course introduces students to the foundation in Chemistry. Students will explore
the fundamental principles of Chemistry through learning of the properties of matters
and their reaction with each other. This class utilizes both the traditional lecture and
hands-on activities, which emphasize chemical principles, application, problem-
solving, and development of laboratory skills. Conclusions are developed using both
qualitative and quantitative procedures. The topic of discussion includes
measurement, atomic structure, electron configuration, bonding, gas law, state
properties, solution, stoichiometry, reaction, kinetics, equilibrium, acid/base, organic
and nuclear chemistry.
The main goal of this course to provide students with a solid foundation in Chemistry.
Through various activities, students will learn to demonstrate the application of
theories in a laboratory situation and daily life:
+ Appropriate scientific processes and principles in making decisions
+ Effectively engage in public discourse and debate about matters of scientific
and technological concern
+ Increase in students’ economic productivity throughout their careers through the
use of knowledge, understanding, and skills employed by the scientifically literate
person
Students will utilize other materials related to the content of the lessons. All required
equipment will be provided by the schools (folder, writing utensil, calculator)
This class also utilizes Google Classroom, STEMSCOPES, and Weebly as the
learning platforms on which students can find announcement regarding class
activities and assignments.
IV. Evaluation:
Score Evaluation
4 _ Students successfully demonstrate a clear understanding
of the material with effort in showing the thinking process.
_ Students completed all the required task with only minor
or no mistakes
3 _ Students successfully demonstrate a good understanding
of the materials with effort in showing the thinking
process. However, there are some mistakes and room for
improvement
_ Students completed most of the required task with some
mistakes
2 _ Students somewhat demonstrate a good understanding of
the material with effort in showing the thinking process.
However, there are rooms for improvements.
_ Students complete some of the required tasks with some
mistake
1 or NP _ Students fail to demonstrate s good understanding of the
material with little effort in showing the thinking process.
/ _ Excused (Official – no grade deduction)
_ Students have one week after coming back to school to
complete the missing assignments.
M _ Missing (Expected to be turned in a treated as a late
assignment)
AD _ Academic Dishonesty
_ Students will receive an alternative assignment.
VII. Self-Evaluation:
_ All self-evaluations will be announced in advance.
_ There will be a review for each exam. However, students are expected to bring their
questions. If there is not any question, students can work in groups to solve problems
that they still need help.
_ Each evaluation covers the most recent chapter along with materials from lab
experiments, discussion, textbook reading, and application. However, Chemistry is
cumulative, and students are expected to review older materials for each exam.
