INTRODUCTION
Chemistry is the science in charge of studying all the phenomena that occur in matter. In the chemistry course, we will take students on a journey where the different discoveries, theories and laws that strengthen the scientific advances and the experimental practice that are the basis in this learning process will be shown.
GENERAL OBJECTIVE
The objectives for PAI chemistry is to promote in the student an analytical, inquiring and flexible mentality to pose questions, solve problems, elaborate explanations and judge arguments where:
• They develop skills to design and conduct investigations, evaluate evidence, and reach conclusions, reflecting on learning experiences and making informed decisions.
• They understand and consider science and its implications as a human activity that has benefits and limitations.
METHODOLOGY
•Master class
• Inquiries
• Workshops
• Practice by simulators
• Guided projects
