If I'd had access to this material when I first failed freshman chemistry 40 years ago, I probably wouldn't have failed. Kudos to Dean Hutchinson for bringing us his innovative approach.

Dr. Hutchinson's instruction was excellent. I would love to take a course in person. I am quite certain that he did not write the quizzes due to their lack of organization, disjointed relevance and rather hastily constructed design. Please do the following to improve the quizzes because they were not very beneficial for learning. 1) Please have an English major proofread the questions for clarity. I often could not understand exactly what was being asked. 2) Please do not include questions on material that is in future lessons or is extra-course specific. on the quizzes. I found myself consulting outside scientific sources to decipher terms used on the quiz that were not used in the course material. 3) Please be explicit with questions. Do not force the student to make assumptions or presume units. This is not done in the professional world and students should not take up the habit as they are learning.

The "Concept Development" approach of this course is unique compared to traditional approaches. The algebra can get intensive at times, particularly in weeks 9, 10, and 11. This course seems well suited for someone who is brushing up on their old chem skills (like me). Newbies to chemistry can do well in the first eight weeks, but will find the final three to be tougher.
The multiple choice quizzes are fairly easy although the grammar and sentence structure of questions and answers is very poor. There are no practice questions with solutions. This makes math questions on the quizzes difficult, especially when units of Torr or mm Hg are used instead of atm., which is used for the lectures.
The instruction is clear although math steps are sometimes rushed.

I generally enjoyed the class material and the teaching style, however it seems like the lectures and the materials covered on the quizzes have become misaligned somehow. Many quizzes assess content that hasn't yet been covered in the module. (But are covered later in the course) There was also quite a bit of misalignment with the popups in the video, and the actual video content.

Great college level General Chem I refresher, but would be difficult to complete if this is your first time seeing these concepts or following the mathematics.

This is not an introductory course, it's more a course for people who are studying to be chemistry teachers. If you don't know higher mathematics like calculus, you won't be able to pass the exams.
The questions in the exams are not based on the actual course content. Often, they are mixed up and include questions from future concepts that haven't been introduced yet, or are simply too advanced in general. It's frustrating, because you can't use the exams to check on your progress during the course.
The textbook doesn't help, and I haven't been able to download the current edition anywhere.

There are questions on the very first quiz that are not covered in the section. Not a good sign for the rest of the course.
