Behavioral Objectives. In order to attain this competency, the student should be able to:
Behavioral Objectives. The writing of behavioral objectives may be required to determine the broad goals and objectives of employees for their students' expected success; however, the writing of behavioral objectives as a part of their daily lesson plans will not be required.
Behavioral Objectives. In order to attain this competency, the student should be able to: Perform an experiment that involves a synthesis and limiting reactant calculation. Competency 5: Titration.
Behavioral Objectives. In order to attain this competency, students should be able to: Understand the value of, and the limitations associated with, computational methods (this competency is recommended by the ACS but not required by the Chemistry or the Biology Articulation Agreement).
Behavioral Objectives. In order to attain this competency, the student should be able to: Perform an experiment involving buffers.
Behavioral Objectives. In order to attain this competency, the student should be able to: Perform an experiment involving calorimetry to measure specific heat or heat of reaction. Competency 7: Spectroscopy. Behavioral Objectives: In order to attain this competency, the student should be able to: Perform an experiment that utilizes a UV-Visible spectrometer in the construction of a calibration curve and analysis of an unknown. Competency 8: Kinetics. Behavioral Objectives: In order to attain this competency, the student should be able to: Perform an experiment that involves the application of kinetic calculations (first order, second order, or pseudo-first order, etc.) using the method of initial rates or a graphical approach. Competency 9: pH. Behavioral Objectives: In order to attain this competency, the student should be able to: Perform an experiment that utilizes a pH meter and demonstrates changes in equilibria in a pH titration. Competency 10: Buffers.
Behavioral Objectives. In order to attain this competency, the student should be able to: Perform an experiment that involves the calculation of empirical formula.
Behavioral Objectives. In order to attain this competency, the student should be able to: Develop competence in the spectroscopic analysis of organic starting materials and synthetic products. Methods should include, at the very least, interpretation of IR and NMR spectra. It is recommended that GC/MS should also be included. Students should develop facility in deducing structures from spectra and be able to provide answers to questions involving data provided from ‘unavailable’ spectroscopic or computational sources.
