1 lecture provides theoretical background: precision & accuracy, systematic & random errors, uncertainty quantification (types A & B)
3 practical works provide applied situations: one in mechanics (period of a pendulum), one in chemistry (volume of gas produced during a reaction) and one in electricity (Ohm's law).

Electronic structures & periodic properties (atomic radius, ionization energy, electronegativity…)
Types of chemical bonds between atoms (ionic, covalent, metallic) and between molecules (dispersion force, dipole-dipole, hydrogen bond) involving molecule polarity (dipole moment, VESPR model…)
States of matter: gaseous state (concept of pressure including partial pressure & vapour pressure, ideal gas law, real gases, density, kinetic theory of gases, diffusion, effusion), condensed matter states (in particular crystallographic structures of solids).

2- Rectilinear motion of a particle: velocity and acceleration, motion equations, continuous and erratic motion

3- General curvilinear motion of a particle: rectangular components, projectile motion

4- Curvilinear motion of a particle: normal and tangential components, cylindrical components, circular motion

5- Two-particle motion analysis: dependent absolute motion, Relative motion

This course aims to make students aware of their learning capacity and to raise their awareness of the learning process. It leads students to reflect on their learning experiences and identify the best practices working for them. It also provides self-management tools to improve their learning abilities. The work axes are learning reflection, organizing information, time management, and group learning.

This module aims to promote self-awareness by introducing students to different theories and tools enabling them to know better themselves, understand differences in behavior and perceptions in groups and estimate how their environment affects them.
Students will partake in a variety of individual and collective exercises to help them identify their values, motivations, strengths and weakness, assess the way they interact with others.

In a world in perpetual motion, marked by an acceleration of innovations and the appearance of more collaborative models, a learner, a future efficient and responsible worker, must have a solid knowledge of himself (observation / reflexivity). In addition, the latter will have to obtain a great capacity for adaptation, evolution (resilience), qualities of listening and empathy towards others, as well as a certain ability to communicate.

This seminar aims to ease post-bac students into higher education by :

• Prepare learners for their career at ECAM LaSalle Lyon
• Become an actor in their studies
• Learn to work in a team

The following tools will be used:
