Readings and seminar considering why students are taking science, what science curricula are appropriate under present-day conditions, the relation of values to science, modern approaches to the teaching of knowledge and skills, modern approaches to enriching human interaction in university education. Each student serves as facilitator for a study group in course 1.
Readings and seminars on teaching science. Each student serves as facilitator for a study group in course 1, observes at meetings of the study groups, and moderates a course 137/8 seminar. Final projects or reports are required.
Designed to give experience in advanced computational chemistry through open-ended research-type problem solving. Covers molecular graphics, molecular mechanics, semi-empirical and abinitio calculations applied to conformational analysis, reaction predictions, and drug design.
Introduction to modern special topics in physical chemistry. Topics may include macromolecules, spectroscopy, and solid-state materials. Lecture-3-1/2 hours.
Students lead one 3L or 8L laboratory section, under the direct supervision of a teaching assistant (T.A.), hold office hours, and attend the T.A. meetings for the course.
