Summary

The use of the laboratory is a valuable tool in developing a deeper understanding of key chemical concepts from the experimental process. This lab manual encourages scientific thinking, enabling readers to conduct investigations in chemistry. It shows how to think about the processes they are investigating rather than simply performing a laboratory experiment to the specifications set by the manual. Each experiment begins with a problem scenario and ends with questions requiring feedback on the problem.

Author Biography

Nancy Kerner is a lecturer and Smithsonian Fellow at the University of Michigan.?She has long been involved in Guided Inquiry learning and is a co-founder of MERLOT (Multimedia Educational Resource for Learning and Online Teaching), an NSF-funded cross-disciplinary website that shares and disseminates different types of teaching materials.
