Introduction to Chemistry

CHEMISTRY 1010/1010L
Summer 2021

Professor: Dr. S. Lunsford, Professor of Chemistry


Course Hours: M, T, W, TH from 4:40-5:50 pm by WebEx, and all PowerPoints will be
posted on PILOT or by e-mail.
e-mail: Suzanne.Lunsford@wright.edu

Required Texts/materials below can be purchased at the Wright State University


Bookstore
1. Essentials Concepts of Chemistry, Sherman and Sherman
2. Laboratory Guide for Introductory Chemistry (2nd edition), Van Griner
3. Need Calculator (with Log-acids/bases)

Course Objectives:

1. To experience inquiry-based learning through chemistry activities/problem-


solving delivered with on-line content
2. To further develop understanding of science concepts and applications at an
adult level
3. To further develop understanding of chemical concepts and how these
concepts relate to everyday world experiences; science, technology and
society
4. To develop oral questioning skills, alternate and authentic assessment
techniques for fundamental chemical concepts presented on-line
5. To develop mathematical understanding and reasoning through chemistry
applications such as stoichiometry (quantities of reactants needed and the
quantities of products produced)

Course Organization:

Chemistry content will be delivered on-line and understanding is frequently checked and
homework is assigned daily by Pilot and some assignments posted on NEWS of Pilot and
may be e-mailed as well. Whole class discussions about homework solutions or concepts
are held for the purpose of solidifying understanding of science concepts and processes
on-line. This course is predominately an on-line inquiry-based course with frequent
individualized attention for students in on-line discussions. However students will be
required to read inquiry activity-based worksheets/homework on problem-based
chemistry concepts and comprehend concepts at a college level.
Evaluation: Exams will be announced one week in advance. The exams will consist
of the authentic and traditional assessment questioning techniques. Missing an exam
because of illness, students must e-mail me without delay before the exam that you will
not be attending. However, when you return to the on-line course for the make-up exam
please e-mail a written excused notice with documentation from the doctor or funeral
excuse why missed exam.
Homework:
Homework is assigned each class period and is an essential part of the class grade.
Homework submitted past the due date will not be accepted, students must e-mail
homework to Suzanne.Lunsford@wright.edu.
