Information
Aims, contents and method of the course
Assessment and permitted materials
In the "Heteroatom Chemistry" course, assessment of student learning will be conducted through a comprehensive two-hour written exam at the end of the course. This exam is designed to evaluate students' mastery of the course material, their ability to integrate and apply heteroatom chemistry principles, and their problem-solving skills in theoretical contexts. The exam will cover all topics discussed during the course, with questions formatted as a mix of short answer, mechanistic, synthetic and essay questions, that require analytical and critical thinking.Assessment Requirements:Final Written Exam: The two-hour written exam will be the sole component of assessment for this course. It will comprehensively cover the course content, including the properties and behaviors of heteroatoms, their roles in various chemical compounds, synthetic strategies, and applications in real-world contexts. The exam will test students on their ability to understand key concepts, apply theoretical knowledge to problem-solving, and articulate their understanding clearly and concisely.
Minimum requirements and assessment criteria
The exam will be graded on the basis of total points earned out of the total points possible. The allocation of points for each question or section will be clearly indicated on the exam paper, allowing students to manage their time effectively and prioritize their responses.
Typical key, for a total of 200 points:
<100 points, Grade 5
100-124 Points, Grade 4
125-154 Points, Grande 3
155-179 points, Grade 2
> 180 Points, Grade 1
