Each week
the class will meet in CRBL 302.
Coordinator: Dr. Knaust, Bell Hall 122, 747-7002, hknaust@utep.edu
SCI
1100 [Science Seminar] is an “omnibus course” with each of the six science
areas (Biology, Chemistry, Environmental Science, Geology, Mathematics and
Physics) providing two hands-on laboratory experiments.
This
course has three objectives: to (1)
develop your learning skills, (2) show the interdependence among all the
sciences and mathematics, and (3) keep your interest in science alive. The
course design will expose you to the scientific method in a variety of settings
and shows you both the commonality and the diversity of the various science
areas.
Each
instructor is responsible for assigning student grades (0-100) for their
laboratory.
The
coordinator will average the best 10 out of 12 lab grades and assign a final
grade for the course (A 90-100, B 80-89, C 70-79, D 60-69, F below 60).
Attendance is mandatory. Each absence will result in a grade of 0 for the
laboratory you miss.
The
course schedule is subject to change. An up-to-date version can be found at http://helmut.knaust.info/200410_sci1100/schedule.html
