4.作业将采用灵活的方式, 约两周一次作业, 作业内容将促进学生对基础知识的掌握理解。Homework will adopt a
flexible approach, which will be about once per two weeks. The contents of the homework will facilitate
students to master the fundamentals in materials chemistry.
5.期末考试将采用在课堂上开卷的形式, 3 小时, 将评价学生的理解能力而不是回想和记忆能力,考查学生利用已
经掌握的基础知识和课堂记录灵活地利用材料化学知识应用到新领域,新状况,分析设计和合成,以及评价材料性质
等 综 合 能 力 。 Final exam will be using “ open-note ” style in classroom for 3 hours. Students are
evaluated on understanding rather than recall and memorization. Students will be expected to apply
materials to new situations; analyze elements and relationships, synthesis, and/or structure; as well
as evaluate using their materials as evidence.
