Instructions

During our Reaction Rates unit, we tried out a non-traditional classroom.  For this unit, we'll keep some aspects of the non-traditional classroom and make some changes.

What’s the same as for the previous unit?

  • Much of the work is self-paced and you are responsible for finishing by the deadline
  • Mostly individual/small-group conversations with teacher instead of whole-class lecture
  • Can choose whether to complete tasks by yourself or with a partner (although tasks must be submitted on an individual basis – one per person – unless indicated otherwise)
  • For concept application assignments, have some choice about type of assignment and topic

What’s different from the previous unit?

  • Instead of working wherever you want, you will work in our meeting place for the entire period (our meeting place may be M301, library, Haas computer lab, or elsewhere)
  • Fewer self-paced days and more whole-class-activity days to provide more structure
  • More feedback throughout the unit so that you can see if you’re learning what you need to be learning
  • Communication will be through Canvas instead of Blackboard

The schedule for the week will be posted on Canvas by Monday morning.  On self-paced days, you will work your way through the modules on Canvas.  Pay close attention to due dates and announcements.
