Students will assist the teaching assistant in teaching a lab course in which the student previously received a grade of A- or better. Activities will be determined in consultation with the instructor and include instruction of 1 or 2 lab sections per week. Undergraduates enrolled in Chem 183 are learning assistants (LAs) in the general chemistry laboratory. LAs teach and mentor first-year university students. LAs assist students with experiments, lab technique, data analysis, calculations, learning chemistry concepts, and problem solving. As the LAs learn STEM education pedagogy, they can practice what they learn as LAs in the chemistry lab.

CollegeI REALLY love her as a person, she's smart and gave me insight about my future in chem. She gave me points back on a midterm that was bad. With that being said... hated the structure of the class. Was graded off how fast you could do math rather than concepts. Quizzes were hard. Lectures were okay, but its very clear she is a research professor.
The test only grade for answers without any process consideration. Lectures and Tests are not in the same level. The Lectures are easy, the tests are hard because time-limited and long questions.
She was an okay lecturer, but her lectures and tests are almost exactly like Feldwinn. No partial credit on free response exams, which is frustrating. However, ALEKS is a big part of grade and I ended up getting 44 extra credit points from iclicker. Nice professor, bad exams.
Very generous extra credit, fun lectures, and she seems like an incredibly sweet person. She doesn't give any partial credit on the tests which can be annoying but they are all manageable. Occasionally she won't be able to answer questions in lecture but she is always sure to find and share the answer as quickly as possible.
