Chemistry 222 is the second of three 10 week (one term) classes designed to introduce chemistry concepts to scientific, medical and engineering majors. At Mt. Hood Community College, Chemistry 222 consists of three one hour lectures per week and one four hour combined laboratory / recitation section per week... this is traditional Chemistry 222, a "normal" course of Chemistry 222 provided to students with extensive face to face teaching and learning.

Hybrid Chemistry 222 is a Chemistry 222 class designed for students who live considerable distance from the Mt. Hood Community College main campus or for those whose work schedule prevents them from attending the "normal" classes in the Chemistry 222 course. Taught consecutively each Winter since 2003, hybrid Chemistry 222 courses have only one required meeting time per week - i.e Wednesday afternoons from 1:00 PM until 5:00 PM - reducing the amount of time spent on campus from seven hours per week over four days down to four hours per week on one day.

Hybrid Chemistry 222 classes do not lose the academic integrity inherent to the normal Chemistry 222 course. Lectures are replaced by intensive self-study at home through web-based tutorials, textbook guides, lecture notes, and through other study materials. In addition, students of hybrid Chemistry 222 classes may attend the normal Chemistry 222 lectures if their schedule permits and with the permission of the instructor.

For students requiring Chemistry 223, a hybrid section of Chemistry 223 will be offered during the spring term; in addition, an hybrid section of CH 223 will be offered in the later part of the summer. Normal sections of Chemistry 223 will be offered during the spring term and during the second five weeks of summer term.

Whether you require the traditional lecture and lab chemistry course or the specialized hybrid class, you will find the course to suit your needs at Mt. Hood Community College.
