This course is a blended course that aims to provide in-depth foundation of organic chemistry and the scientific method as well as how to apply it to answer questions about authentic real-world and research problems. The goals are to provide an holistic and immersive experience to:
- Build scientific and organic chemistry literacy
- Consolidate and extend of prior chemical knowledge
- Challenge with in-depth inquiry, analysis and critical thinking
- Foster inter-personal interactions (peer-to-peer and instructors-to-peer) to support learning, retention and in-depth understanding.
- Prepare for success in organic chemistry 2, MCAT, experiential activities (undergraduate research, internship or co-op for example), and advanced courses.
