SUMMARY:The Middle Ground:  An “Atoms to Reactions” Approach in First S
 emester General Chemistry
LOCATION:Chemistry A101

Description:About the Seminar: Most first-semester general chemistry course
 s follow either a “reactions first” or an “atoms first” format. Th
 is presentation will compare the advantages and drawbacks of each approach
 \, then introduce a third approach\, called “atoms to reactions”\, tha
 t draws from the best features of each traditional format. This presentati
 on will describe the organization of an experimental first-semester genera
 l chemistry 1 course\, with an emphasis on class structure\, exam sequence
 \, and the relationship between class and lab.\n\nAbout the Speaker: Kevin
  Revell teaches introductory\, general\, and organic chemistry at Murray S
 tate University. A passionate educator\, his teaching experience includes 
 high school\, community college\, small private\, state comprehensive\, an
