Spencer L. Seager

Spencer L. Seager retired from Weber State University in 2013 after serving for 52 years as a faculty member of the chemistry department. He served as department chairman from 1969 until 1993 and taught general and physical chemistry at the university. Dr. Seager was also active in projects to help improve chemistry and other science education in local elementary schools. He received his B.S. in chemistry and Ph.D. in physical chemistry from the University of Utah.

Michael R. Slabaugh

Michael R. Slabaugh is an adjunct professor at the University of South Dakota and at Weber State University, where he teaches the yearlong sequence of general chemistry, organic chemistry and biochemistry. He received his B.S. in chemistry from Purdue University and his Ph.D. in organic chemistry from Iowa State University. His interest in plant alkaloids led to a year of postdoctoral study in biochemistry at Texas A&M University. His current professional interests are chemistry education and community involvement in science activities, particularly the State Science and Engineering Fair in Utah. He also enjoys the company of family, hiking in the mountains and fishing the local stream.

Maren S. Hansen

Maren S. Hansen is an adjunct professor at the University of South Dakota, where she teaches online courses in general chemistry, elementary organic chemistry and elementary biochemistry. She has also been a science teacher at West High School, where she taught honors biology, and has taught AP biology and biology in the International Baccalaureate Program. Professor Hansen received her B.A. and M.Ed. from Weber State University, and her professional interests have focused on helping students participate in Science Olympiad and Science Fair. Other interests include adventure travel, mountain hiking, gardening and the company of friends and family, and she hopes to share her love of science with her two children.

Features

{{collapseContainerClosed['features'] ? 'Show More' : 'Show Less'}}
  • Mastery Learning Problems contain questions associated with specific concepts or skills. With these unique problems, the chemistry, the wording of the questions and the numbers change to ensure student mastery. This 3-way randomization allows students to practice and understand the underlying chemical concepts before they gain mastery and move on.
  • Tutorials, Simulations and Visual Exercises are interactive, media-rich problems designed to promote conceptual understanding and support problem-solving skills.
  • End-of-chapter Practice Problems that match the textbook are available in OWLv2. These problems are randomized and include detailed feedback and solutions to help students prepare for exams.
  • OWLv2 offers access to a mobile-compatible MindTap Reader ebook, which includes all textbook content, plus multimedia and note-taking capabilities.
  • Select courses include Quick Prep, which helps students review fundamental skills and concepts at the start of the semester, as well as Adaptive Study Plans, which offer a helpful review and summary of the topics in a chapter.
