Nositelj predmeta

Opis predmeta

Successful work in any field of agriculture today is almost impossible without understanding basics of natural sciences, chemistry and biochemistry in particular. Program of the module "Agricultural chemistry" enables students to acquire basic theoretical and practical knowledge necessary for successful continuation of the education and work in the field. Module consists of following program parts:
General and inorganic chemistry – topics necessary for understanding chemical reactions, energy changes in chemical reactions, as well as physical and chemical properties of biogenic elements will be presented.
Organic chemistry with basic biochemistry – structure and chemical reactivity organic compounds necessary for understanding of basic biochemical processes will be presented.
Laboratory practice – basic elements of qualitative and quantitative chemical analysis will be taught through practical work in laboratory.
Final grade will include marks of colloquium, seminar tasks and oral exam

Način rada

Obveze nastavnika

All teaching materials are organized and available in Moodle system; forum for communication with students; calendar of major events for module; information related to the course; tasks for the establishment of knowledge at a particular lecture, instructions for the use of teaching materials, assessment of student assignments, written examinations, conducting oral examinations

Obveze studenta

Attending lectures, laboratory exercises and seminars is mandatory, and students participate in learning through the system for e-learning. Students during the first two weeks of classes should be sure to log into the system for e-learning Moodle within which they may use the presentation of lectures, examples of solved problems with seminars and other materials.
After each exercise the student must write a report, and submit it to the leader of the exercises within 7 days. Terms for the exam are regularly attend lectures and exercises, seminars, and regularly solve all tasks with lectures and laboratory exercises
