We'll start this course with a discussion of the particles that make up matter and of the types of chemical bonds between particles. The students will understand the physical and chemical properties of different types of matter. They will also study the stoichiometry and energy change in a chemical reaction, and apply them to chemical phenomena in real life. We'll learn about the states of matter and the properties of solutions, and end the lesson with a concrete understanding the properties and structures of matter in terms of type of intermolecular forces.

◆ The schedule is subject to change.
■ Evaluation items and criteria for homework and learning attitude
|
|
Homework and Question paper
|
|
|
Homework for each chapter should be submitted by the due date and will be evaluated.
|
Students will receive credits or penalties depending on learning attitude and class attendance.
|
Evaluation item and
criterion
|
∙Grade is 10 for each homework and penalties for late assignment incur (-5). One day late assignment are not acceptable (-10).
∙Assignment submissions must be the student's own work. Should copying occur, the student who copied the work will automatically receive a zero for the assignment.
∙About question submission, if students don't submit question paper, they will receive a zero; +1 points for normal question; +1.5 points for deep and good question: +2 points for marvelous and excellent question
|
∙For behaviors inhibiting learning environment (studying for other class, chatting, taking a nap, etc.), penalty is -1 each time (total grade 5 for learning attitude).
∙Cell phones and computer games (-2)
∙Food and beverages are not permitted in the classroom. This includes plate lunches, drinks, candy, etc. whether opened or not.
∙If students positively contribute to the learning environment during class, they can receive credit (+0.5).

■ Attendance policy
§ Attendance will be recorded. Excessive absences (two or more) may result in a notification sent to your parents and the school authority.
§ Attendance will be graded as follows:
- For no absences and no late arrivals, you will receive 5 points.
- Being late will be penalized -0.2 point per each class.
- For one unexcused absence, you will lose 1 point; For two absences, lose 3 points; For three absences, lose 5 points.
- Anyone who has more than four class-long, unexcused absences will receive an "F" grade for the COURSE.
■ Reading Assignment
§ Read assigned chapters (see Lecture schedule) before the related lectures.
§ To derive the greatest benefit from the classes, I urge you to develop the habit of reading and studying each chapter before the class on that topic. This practice of prior study will not only enable you to better understand the contents presented in the lectures, but will also allow for discussion in class about those topics with which you are having difficulty. I hope to conduct as many classes as possible in a "interactive" style, with formal lecture material being interruptible with questions and answers.
