"The universe is full of magical things waiting patiently for our wits to grow sharper." --Eden Phillpotts
All of the world around you is composed of chemicals. Everything that you use, eat, buy, or touch is a chemical. This course will help you understand common day-to-day phenomena. Most environmental, technological, medical and biological phenomena are based in the concepts of chemistry and physics that you will learn while in this course. Products that you use and the waste that you generate affect the world around you, all directly relates to these concepts. It is important to your future that you make informed decisions and not have to rely solely on the opinions of “experts.”
You may change careers several times during your lifetime. It is very likely that some of these careers will involve science, math and technology and will require that you be chemically literate. This course is designed to prepare your for future science courses and give you the background for technical programs at the vocational level. In addition, it will be a preparation for the higher level thinking and problem solving that is required in college and the jobs of the future
