| CHIM0710-1 | Chemistry as preparation for motor skills, Part I
|
|
| Duration : | 30h Th, 12h Pr, 10h REM |
|
| Number of credits : |
|
|
| Lecturer : | Loïc Quinton |
|
Language(s) of instruction :
|
| French language |
|
Organisation and examination :
|
| Teaching in the first semester, review in January |
|
Course contents :
|
| Topics : General Chemistry
- Aggregation states of the matter
- Atomic and molecular structures
- Chemical bonding
- Chemical equilibria and pH-metry
- Oxydo-reduction reactions
|
|
Learning outcomes of the course :
|
|
- Acquire the basic tools of chemistry.
- Check the reasoning ability, the learning and the understanding of the topics (this aim is crucial for all the lessons of the cursus).
- The lecture is oriented, as much as possible, towards the applications to life sciences.
|
|
Prerequisites and co-requisites/ Recommended optional programme components :
|
| Knowledge of some backgrounds of chemistry of the secondary level. |
|
Planned learning activities and teaching methods :
|
|
- 3 experimental sessions, called "laboratories", of 4h are programmed to enable the students to apply and sense by themselves the practical involvements of the theoretical lectures.
- These "laboratories" consist in the applications of pH-metry, titrations, or again redox reactions.
|
|
Mode of delivery (face-to-face ; distance-learning) :
|
| Theoretical lecture: 30h divided into 17 sessions of 1h30 (~2 lessons per week).
Training session: 7 sessions of 1h30 are schedulled for this course.
e-Campus: an e-learning platform is available for helping the students all along the course. You will find there:
- lecture notes
- statements of the training exercises
- corrected exercises
- exam simulations
- a discussion forum for asking questions to teachers
|
|
Recommended or required readings :
|
| Lecture Notes. Students will have access to the slides showed during the lessons via their e-learning interface. They will be, of course, invited to complete them according to their wishes.
Reference book. Two books of reference will be presented. A low price sale will be held at the beginning of the new academic year for the students who want to purchase these books. |
|
Assessment methods and criteria :
|
| SESSIONS OF EXAMINATION
Written exam (80% of the final score).
- The students will be evaluated through a written exam organized as multiple choice questions.
- Three sessions of examination will be organized (january, june and september), allowing the students to have three chances of success.
- This written exam will count for 80% of the final mark.
Experimental examination (20% of the final score).
- The experimental work in chemistry laboratories will be taken into account by averaging the marks obtained from each experimental session (~15pts for QROC/QROL exams and 5pts for general behavior, for the respect of the security instructions...).
-
The presence in the laboratory sessions is mandatory. A non-medically justified absence will be automatically sanctionned by a 00/20. All the medical certificates must be EXCLUSIVELY deposited in the mail box located at the first floor of the B6d building. Only these certificates will be taken into account.
- This mark is fixed for the three exam sessions and counts for 20% of the final score.
VALIDATION OF THE COURSE CHIM0710-1.
- The global score will be calculated from the score obtained for the written exam (80%) and from the experimental work (20%).
-
Each global score equal or superior to 10,00/20 will ensure the validation of the course.
- The global score is sent to the Secretary of the jury for deliberation with two digits.
