  • CHEM 371 - Environmental Chemistry


    3 credits

    Description

    A survey of environmental chemistry including the atmosphere, surface and ground waters, soils, and selected aspects of geochemistry. Both descriptive and quantitative approaches to a variety of topics are explored. An emphasis is placed upon applications of thermodynamics and kinetics to the natural unpolluted environment as the basis for an examination of the effects of human activities upon these systems.  

    Prerequisites
    CHEM 351.



    Note
    Unless otherwise stated, all chemistry courses require laboratory work.

  • CIMT 400 - Teaching III


    3 credits

    Description
    Strategies for collaborating with other education professionals, with parents, and with others in the community to understand pupils as whole persons and to help pupils meet the challenges they currently face or will likely face beyond the classroom. Ways to help pupils develop problem-solving and decision-making abilities useful beyond the classroom are discussed. Information on laws relevant to teaching is also provided.

    Prerequisites
    Special education majors: ELED 250 and CIMT 410M. Secondary Education: CIMT 301 & 302.



    Note
    Paired with a teaching practicum in a local high school, for which students enroll in CIMT 400L—Teaching III Practicum.

  • CIMT 475 - Critical Thinking and Ethics in Education


    3 credits

    Description
    This Foundational Studies Ethics and Social Responsibility Division Elective focuses on an examination of current ethical and social issues related to public education from a taxpayer perspective. As citizens and as students who are or will become parents of publically educated children, students must understand the ethical and social responsibility associated with public education. This course helps accomplish this in the context of the times and the generation to which the students belong. Enabling emphases include a review of critical thinking and information literacy and the subsequent application of both to the analysis of a current education issue. Topics include but are not limited to such areas as NCLB, public education reform, school performance, home schooling, charter schools, and standardized testing.
