OpenStax Chemistry: Flipped Classroom Reading Guides for General Chemistry (1st semester)

(View Complete Item Description)

Here you can find reading guides that were created by Montgomery College faculty for undergraduate general chemistry students to use to guide their reading of OpenStax Chemistry. These guides are closely aligned with chapters 1-11 and were designed for use in the first semester sequence of general chemistry. They can be used in a flipped-style classroom where students complete them before the lecture. Or they can be used to reinforce important topics learned in class. Each study guide has fill-in-the blank style questions, as well as links to videos where similar problems are worked through. Finally, suggested practice problems relevant to the topic of each study guide are listed at the end.

This text, or resource, aims to help all students in English composition classes and reading understand the connections and the cohesive aspect of reading and writing. The authors used their own years of teaching both reading and writing for all levels in college to explain concepts in a straightforward and clear manner for students.
