3. My name is Tom Hummel (tjhummel) and I am the course director of Chem 104 this summer. I lecture at 1 pm Monday - Thursday in 1024 Noyes Lab. At noon Monday-Thursday, you have discussion section. The TA for the discussion section is Ethan Ramirez (eramir63) and the room for discussion section is 2012 Chem Annex.
4. The required text for the course is the 3rd ed Chemistry: An Atoms First Approach by Zumdahl, Zumdahl, and Decoste. I recommend you purchase the electronic version of the text, since it is cheapest. Where you purchase the materials is up to you.
In general, the best price for the etext comes from the publisher, Cengage. To make your purchase of the required etext from Cengage, go to Cengage.com and use the ISBN for the text to search for it. The ISBN for the 3rd ed Atoms First text is ISBN-9780357363454.
5. We will not use OWL this summer. All homework in the course is assigned from the text. We will also not use Canvas for our summer course. The only online source is this website.
6. If you are new to the course, please read the Course Policy handout (link on the right). There is also a link to the assignments on the right. To catch-up, do the assigned reading and text homework problems for the classes you missed. In general, if you can do and understand the assigned text homework problems, then you are in good shape.
