Basden’s AP Chemistry class at the Highland High School, and I observed on Tuesday and Thursday mornings. I assisted Mrs. Basden with group questions and activities. The AP chemistry course is very intensive and contains a lot of required material to cover within a school year. The majority of the observation was revolved around solving practice problems that will help these students on the AP exam. Due to the rigorous schedule of teaching all the topics that will be on the AP Chemistry Exam, there

evidence, takes many years of experience to master but the results can be influential on many aspects of everyday life. Most commonly used in criminal justice, the career requires specific skills and knowledge. If even one slight mistake is made, an innocent could be put behind bars or the safety of a community could be threatened. When aspiring scientists decide to go into the field of forensic science, many prerequisites are needed. In high school and even in the first years of college, certain
that affects career choices and development. This is especially true due to the fact that a large majority of GTAs in chemistry teach freshman and sophomore year undergraduate students. Therefore, the quality of GTA teaching has a long but foreseeable impact on the future scientific community and for our society at large. Not only are GTAs a vital component in teaching chemistry to undergraduates, but the training that they themselves receive impacts their own development.
As I started my undergraduate journey, I never thought I would end up where I am now. When I entered college, I thought that my degree in chemistry would be a stepping-stone on the way to medical school. My one and only goal, at the start of college, was to work as hard as I could to ensure that I would one day become a doctor. However, along the way I figured out that medical school was not where my passions lie. At the start of college I became friends with kids just like me; hard science majors
Austin Peay State University Department of Chemistry CHEM 1021 BREAKING DOWN STARCH USING SALIVARY AMYLASE Caution: You will be using a Bunsen burner and glassware to create your own constant water bath. Appropriate caution should be exercised when dealing with the Bunsen burner, hot water, and glassware. Purpose: Many plants store their energy in the form of starch, a polysaccharide made from repeating units of the monosaccharide glucose. Our bodie
Albert Hofmann Research Paper Albert Hofmann is a chemist who creates the drug LSD in 1938. He attends the University of Zurich and studies chemistry for four years. After college, he begins working at Sandoz Laboratories and develops the drug LSD there. After he creates the drug, he tests it on himself and rides his bicycle home from the lab. Albert then discoveres ‘ethacetin,’ which is an ‘intoxicating tryptamine.’ He wins many awards later in his life such as the Scheele Award. While examaning
Ms. Thompson’s classroom, they work on a Do-Now posted on the board. Students sit in groups of four with their group number hanging on the ceiling. Each group is a station that works on separate assignments. For example, one station would work on a lab while one station works on notes or a research paper. Students can earn coupons called bio bucks, which can be used for going to lockers or the restroom. They can also be saved and used as homework passes. Students do not wear uniforms, but instead
her parents were teachers gained a lot of her knowledge in physics and chemistry from her father. Though Marie had a passion for learning, there weren’t many options for women in Poland. Her goal was to be able to study at Sorbonne in Paris, however, due to financial issues she couldn’t. By age 24 she had raised enough money to go to Paris, so she packed her bags and went to live with her sister, Bronya. Despite it being six years since working on her studies, she was determined. She knew that Sorbonne
purpose of assignment one is to gain practical skills and knowledge of formatting. With regards to plots and tables, I will learn the proper way of designing them to fit the specific formatting needs. This will greatly assist me when I write technical lab reports for this class and in industry. It is essential to be able to thoroughly and completely follow directions in order to maintain a good standing with an employer or a professor. Not only is being able to format a great skill to have and to hone
