Exercises description
An inverted (flipped classroom) will take place and every student will have the opportunity to make a short presentation/flash talk of 5 minutes about a recent scientific article of her/his choice dealing with Organic Photochemistry.
Teaching methods
All lectures during this course will be given in English, and will combine slides and writings on the whiteboard. A printed support will be provided to the students
Evaluations
The final exam consists in an oral presentation of 15 minutes, during which the student will present and comment a recent research article related to one of the six chapters described below. The presentation will be followed by 15 minutes of discussions and of general questions about the whole course of Organic Photochemistry.
Recommended readings
All lectures and presentations will be available online on Webcampus
