Organic
Chemistry Assignment 1
Group
Presentation
Each group
will have 10 minutes to make a presentation about organic chemistry. You may use power point, video, audio,
overhead projector, handouts… basically anything we have available at school. If you need something besides power point, be
sure to let me know so I can have your copies and equipment ready before class
on Friday.
Make your
presentation interesting! Include things
that YOU find interesting, and think others in the class (not just me) will
find interesting. Be creative and
original!
Your
presentation on Friday should answer most, but not necessarily all, of the
following questions:
• What is Organic Chemistry?
• What do Organic Chemists do?
• What makes Organic different from other
areas of chemistry?
• What kinds of jobs/careers are
available in Organic Chemistry? Where?
• What kind of current (in the last 5
years) research is being done in Organic Chemistry? Tell us about one in particular. (required)
• What kind of salary can you make being
an Organic Chemist?
• What does a typical Organic Chemistry
class study?
• Why is Organic Chemistry important?
• When would you typically study Organic
chemistry in college? For what majors?
