Welcome to CHE 106!

Chemistry is a challenging and often abstract science, but as you progress through this course, we hope you will discover that chemistry is also exciting and that many of the key concepts in chemistry are both important and relevant to life on Earth. Throughout this semester we will provide you with the basic skills and knowledge to think and feel like a chemist. You will learn that chemistry is exciting!

The lab course runs twice per week with one class synchronous in person and one class online synchronous in BB Collaborate. Make sure you have access to your class in Blackboard and that the email listed in your account there is the correct email you use and check regularly. That’s the only way we will be able to communicate with you.

Blackboard:

You must use your Hunter/cuny credentials to log in on Blackboard.
Instructions on how to access the course website on Blackboard can be found at: http://bb.hunter.cuny.edu. You should check the site regularly. It can also be used to communicate with your classmates.

Blackboard will be where you turn in your lab reports, however this Academic Commons site will be where I list many resources that can help you throughout both your chemistry 102 lecture, as well as this lab course.

I’m looking forward to having a great semester with you all!
