Course Description

Emphasis is placed on learning the metric system; how to do conversions between the English and metric system; avoiding problems with household chemicals; an introduction to organic and biochemistry as it applies to everyday living; and acids and bases.  Lecture demonstrations and in some cases, cooperative team learning is used to emphasize topics.  Those who successfully complete the course should understand the hazards associated with common household chemicals, be prepared for the change to the metric system, and better understand the articles in the popular press regarding chemical and environmentally related topics.
