Chemistry-Paper

The Purpose of this Assignment

Submission of an ePortfolio is required for this class.

Your Signature Assignment should address topics of personal interest, societal concerns, local, or even global issues, from your new found perspective as a student of chemistry using the knowledge and tools you've gained in this class.

It must be original. Your content may be presented as a written essay, a PowerPoint, Prezi or other type of presentation, an information table, a self produce video, or even an experimental writeup with procedures, results and conclusions.

Your Reflection is a written assignment in which you examine how your experience in this class has affected your perspective regarding your Signature Assignment.

Be specific and show in detail the application of chemistry to your Signature Assignment. Use balanced chemical equations, show molecular formulas, calculate quantities of product produced, classify reactions, or demonstrate the application of the scientific method.

You may need to modify your chemical formulas, symbols and equations to be compatible with limited website formatting capability.

A Sample ePortfolio for Chem 1010 (Links to an external site.) can be found by following the link. Note: You will only be graded on the Chem 1010 content.
