| Assessment | |||||||||
| Unaided Work: | Independent work in acquirement of theoretic knowledge by writing chemical formulas and chemical equations in class studies in assistance of lecturer and independently at home; Independent work in purpose of examinations of knowledge (tests, colloquia); Laboratory work in purpose to explore chemical properties of substances and to detect the structure of substances in assistance of lecturer; Work with literature, gathering of information about certain substance or product and presentation in lesson. Tasks: To develop logic; To develop patience and precision required at work in the laboratory; to develop ability to present ones investigation, the ability to hear other thoughts and to discuss. It is recommended to fill in the study course survey, evaluating the existing course content and creating proposals for updating the course. | ||||||||
| Assessment Criteria: | The final rating forms in a following way: • 50% of it form average ratings of tests obtained during the course acquisition time (colloquia); • other 50% form the rating of the examination. . It assesses the student's skills: • to name an organic substance according to its chemical formula; • draw the chemical formula of the organic substance after the given name; • to recognize the functional groups in the molecule of an organic compound and to determine its belonging to a specific class of compounds; • describe the chemical properties of each class of compounds; • to predict the possibilities of interconversion of organic compounds. | ||||||||
| Final Examination (Full-Time): | Exam (Written) | ||||||||
| Final Examination (Part-Time): | Exam (Written) | ||||||||
| Learning Outcomes | |||||||||
| Knowledge: | After studies students will be able: To identify the main classes of inorganic compounds; To describe the main characteristics of each class and ability of mutual transformations; To identify functional groups of organic compounds and main classes of organic compounds; To use the international nomenclature system IUPAC; To describe the main characteristics of organic compounds in accordance of belonging to certain class of compounds. | ||||||||
| Skills: | After studies students will be able: To collect information on certain organic compound (food spice) and to prepare presentation; To perform simple experiments; To perform simple analytic tests according to main functional groups of organic compounds. | ||||||||
| Competencies: | After the successful acquisition of the basic study course of chemistry students will be able: To detect belonging of certain substance (for example, food spice) to a certain class of organic compounds; To predict the properties and reactions of the substance in different processes of food preparation and biochemical transformations. | ||||||||
