This course does not give science distribution credit because it does not have a formal lab. It also does not satisfy the pre-health requirement for chemistry. Talk to Trish soon if you have questions about how this course fits with your Carleton plans and career goals.
Modules cover a modern topic that is centered on an important question.
Each day in class some kind of activity will occur. Lecturing will also continue to be an important classroom activity. Overall, you will be asked to construct and discover ideas on your own, work to master the ideas, and then apply them in familiar and unfamiliar contexts to generalize chemical principles. Important non-modular sections are also shown. Given this kind of active learning environment, it is essential that you attend class and keep up.
