PArt Chemistry
The objective of this refresher course is to provide students unfamiliar with exact and applied sciences with basic theoretical notions of GENERAL CHEMISTRY as well as of the VOCABULARY useful in order to understand the elements of chemistry involved in science and environnment management.

Prerequisite knowledge and skills

Planned learning activities and teaching methods

Chemistry part
The course is given in person by following the classic chapters of a general chemistry course. In addition, a flipped classroom approach is offered to students. In fact, in addition to face-to-face lessons, students will have access to the ULg chemistry MOOC. Students will come to class with questions relating to the chapters of the MOOC and the teaching will adapt its teaching in response to these questions.  

Mode of delivery (face to face, distance learning, hybrid learning)

Chemistry part
face to face + homeworking with the MOOC

Organisational adjustments related to the current health context

Chemistry part
"red code"
teaching via Lifesize
oral exam via lifesize

Recommended or required readings

Assessment methods and criteria

Below you will find information on the evaluation methods planned for in-person and remote exams as well as those planned for hybrid sessions. Depending on how the health crisis evolves, the chosen method will be communicated to you no later than one month before the start of the exam session.
