Learning outcomes
|
Based on the development of chemistry as a field from the pre-alchemical period through the period of alchemy, the period of unification of chemistry and subsequent division into individual disciplines (inorganic, organic and physical chemistry, biochemistry, etc.) to understand deeper connections between individual fields of chemistry, but also links to other sciences and arts. By completing the course, students should deepen, generalize and repeat the basic knowledge of chemistry. Getting acquainted with the work and life destinies of prominent scientific personalities will provide stimuli for the future work of students in schools.
Understand the historical context in the development of chemical disciplines. Present the results of your own research. Work effectively in a group.
