Working with Chemistry: A Laboratory Inquiry Program

by Donald J. Wink, Julie Ellefson Kuehn, Sharon Fetzer-Gislason

An inquiry-based laboratory program for general chemistry consisting of modules that each present a scenario from the world of a chemical professional. Students build skills using important chemical concepts and techniques to the point where they are able to design a solution to a scenario drawn from a professional environment. The scenarios are drawn from the lives of people who work with chemistry every day, ranging from field ecologists to chemical engineers, and including many health professionals as well.
