CHEM-377 Taking Shape

The planning for the Instrumental Analysis course that I am going to teach next winter term is going well. We (my co-lecturer and myself) have now met several people that have been involved with the course one way or the other (the former instructor, instructors of similar courses and the lab coordinator).We have set-up a tentative schedule and checked it for overlap with other lectures. We still need to get everything approved by the Chair, but so fare we have kept him informed, so this should not be a problem. After that we can set-up the exam dates, the rooms and look for invigilators. And of course the individual presentations need to be set-up.There is still ample time – so no need to hurry, but I want to be prepared properly and especially the exam-preparation, weighing of mid-term and final exams will require some time to get it right. Everything – including the “academic integrity clause” – has to be ready before the lecture starts and be made clear to students – which I think is a good thing). And the course website needs to be set-up too.
