Course objectives

The aim of the course is to acquire and deepen clear knowledge of fundamentals of chemistry and biology. Emphasis is placed on the logical structure of this discipline and on acquiring the knowledge and skills necessary for teaching practical teaching at secondary school. For these reasons, the lecture and seminar includes a large number of basic and advanced examples and emphasizes the relationship of the subject matter to practice, nature, household, medical, food, technical applications, etc.
Knowledge : Comprehensive overview of the fundamentals of chemistry and biology with emphasis on the relationship of the subject matter to practice, nature, household, technical applications, etc.
Skills : Be able to identify patterns of chemical and biological nature, especially in technical and medical applications. Perform sufficient analysis of processes and perform subsequent calculations of simple application examples. To know the relation of the subject matter to practical applications. Be able to make a qualified estimate of values. The student carries out his / her own research and inquiry-oriented investigations that help develop cognitive skills.
Attitudes : Acquire the values ​​of objectivity and importance of scientific work.
