Course Overview
Chemistry is one of the fundamental natural sciences, focusing on the study of the composition, structure, properties, and changes of matter. By learning chemistry, students can grasp concepts and processes that are closely related to everyday life. Understanding the connections between chemistry and daily life, as well as its inherent beauty, also helps students recognize the practical applications of chemistry in other fields. A solid foundation in chemistry enables students to understand its role in areas such as medicine, environmental science, materials science, and engineering. Additionally, studying the innovative contributions of chemistry, along with related issues and challenges, helps students develop a comprehensive understanding of the interconnections among science, technology, society, and the environment (STSE).
This course aims to enhance students' interest in and practicality of chemistry, suggesting the introduction of chemical knowledge through real-life situations. The curriculum employs diverse teaching strategies and assessment methods tailored to students' varying abilities and aspirations, fostering their interest and motivation. By integrating other learning experiences, students will be able to apply their chemical knowledge, understand the connections between chemistry and other disciplines, and focus on current issues that relate science, technology, society, and the environment, thereby cultivating them into responsible citizens
