Susan D. Wiediger: Courses
CHEM 121a&b: General Chemistry
 

Chemistry for majors and non-majors who will be taking more science courses (e.g. pre-professional).

CHEM 125b: General Chemistry Laboratory
 

Lab course associated with CHEM 121b. Focus on both content and techniques.

CHEM 296: Introduction to Problem Solving, also used as Peer-Lead Team Leader (PLTL) Workshop Course
 

CHEM 121a in Fall semesters and CHEM 121b in Spring Semesters have PLTL Workshops as part of the course. These sessions are led by undergraduates who have prior experience with the course and participate in weekly meetings in which they give feedback to the instructors and receive training in teaching techniques and group management skills as well as review content.

CHEM 494: Methods of Teaching Chemistry in the Secondary School
 

A methods course for pre-service science (chemistry and other physical sciences) teachers.

SCI 241: Foundations of Science
 

Team-taught between physics, biology, and chemistry, SCI 241 is science content in a lab setting for pre-service elementary education majors. Until Spring 2006, the course number was SCI 341.

Other independent study courses (CHEM 296, 396, 496, 596, SCI 489)
 

These courses vary as widely as the students talking them. See my research pages for more information.
