Teaching
| I use BlackBoard™ in building online exams, teaching materials, and quizzes. I also use Blackboard Collaborates, ECHO360, as well as, Webex and MS Teams, for online teaching. I am applying many of the E-Learning tools in teaching my classes, such as Socrative tool.I contributed by video recording three chapters in the first to be taught full online CHEM 101 course that was offered in Fall 2013. I also contributed in developing the teaching materials and assessment tools.At Qatar University, I have taught Physical Chemistry I (CHEM241), Physical Chemistry II (CHEM242) and III (CHEM342) (Peter Atkins, 8th Edition), Industrial Chemistry (CHEM375), General Chemistry I (CHEM101) and II (CHEM102) using (Chang, 9th-12th Edition), Quantum and Computational Chemistry as well as two other experimental laboratory (General Chemistry II & Physical chemistry I)At Qatar University, I developed a new (first to be taught, (Physical Chemistry III, CHEM342), combined Quantum-Computational Chemistry course, where students were introduced to the basics of quantum mechanics and gradually move to their applications in the modern computational chemistry studies. In this course. Students use PC-modeling, Gaussian 09, Gauss view (GV 05), Hyperchem and Spartan.I have also taught and contributed to the establishment and development of a special Pre-Pharmacy course (CHEM 239), for pre-Pharmacy students at Qatar University. It is an intermediate level course between General Chem. II (CHEM 102) and Physical Chemistry I (CHEM 241). At Qatar University, I also have developed an Industrial Chemistry course (CHEM375) based on the national interest of the Qatar economy. The syllabus contains economic aspects of the Industrial Chemistry, petroleum and its products, water industry, mineral fertilizers (P-, N- and K-containing fertilizers), coal technology, rubber and synthetic Plastics, oils, fats and waxes, inorganic solids (enamel and ceramics) and industrial gases.I taught and instructed experimental work for First, Second and Third year students in Colleges of Science, Education and Pharmacy (1st year) in Alexandria University, in the period 1989-1998 as part of my job duties. I taught General Chemistry, Analytical Chemistry (Volumetric and Gravimetric), Inorganic Chemistry and Physical chemistry labs, in the period 1989-1998.During my Ph.D. study program in the USA and before graduation (1998-2003), I taught General, Analytical and Physical Chemistry laboratories [Chem1211 and CHEM1212, Courses description are available at (http://chemistry.gsu.edu/)]. I also tutored many students in the same fields, as well as elementary Organic Chemistry.In the period 2004-2007, I taught Physical Chemistry in Alexandria University.My teaching experience goes deep and intensively for many of the Chemistry branches since 1989 until now.
