Chemistry (12) A guided-inquiry, collaborative physical chemistry laboratory course is being developed. Motivated by a concern that our physical chemistry laboratories should reflect the way measurements are carried out in modern laboratories, and inspired by the successful reforms of general chemistry, we are adapting and implementing the accepted pedagogical strategies of guided-inquiry and collaborative learning in a problem based approach in a physical chemistry laboratory course. Pedagogical strategies used in the New Traditions systemic chemistry initiative, and more generally discussed by the NSF report on Curricular Developments in the Analytical Sciences, are being adapted.Our primary goals are: 1) to develop two guided-inquiry, collaborative projects where the students learn to develop laboratory procedures, gather samples and obtain data, analyze and interpret data, and effectively communicate their results and 2) to equip our physical chemistry laboratory with instruments which allow us to develop a guided-inquiry, collaborative project which centers on a problem facing the pharmaceutical industry, polymorphism of drug substances. The methodology of the laboratory projects themselves will be adapted from the pharmaceutical research literature and from experiments published in the chemical education literature. New instruments include a differential scanning calorimeter and a polarized light microscope with a hot stage The projects are being developed, implemented, evaluated, and revised during a two-year time frame.Changing the way the physical chemistry laboratory is taught is having a significant impact on the entire chemistry curriculum. Adapting and implementing a guided-inquiry approach begins a reform of the chemistry laboratory curriculum because none of our laboratory courses previously used that approach. The development and implementation of two guided-inquiry collaborative physical chemistry laboratory projects is promoting changes in the laboratory courses across the chemistry curriculum, injecting a problem based approach into our laboratory curriculum, and providing instruments which can be integrated into our courses.

化学（12）一个引导探究，合作物理化学实验室课程正在开发。 出于关注，我们的物理化学实验室应反映在现代实验室进行测量的方式，并受到普通化学的成功改革的启发，我们正在适应和实施的指导探究和协作学习的教学策略，在物理化学实验室课程的问题为基础的方法。 在新体系化学倡议中使用的教学策略，以及NSF关于分析科学课程发展的报告中更普遍讨论的教学策略，正在调整。我们的主要目标是：1）开发两个引导探究，合作项目，学生学习开发实验室程序，收集样本和获取数据，分析和解释数据，并有效地交流他们的结果和2）为我们的物理化学实验室配备仪器，使我们能够开发一个指导性的调查，合作项目，该项目集中在制药行业面临的问题，原料药的多晶型。 实验室项目本身的方法将改编自药学研究文献和化学教育文献中发表的实验。 新仪器包括差示扫描量热仪和带热台的偏振光显微镜。项目正在开发、实施、评估和修订中，为期两年。改变物理化学实验室的教学方式对整个化学课程产生了重大影响。 适应和实施引导探究的方法开始了化学实验室课程的改革，因为我们的实验室课程以前没有使用这种方法。两个引导式探究协作物理化学实验室项目的开发和实施正在促进整个化学课程的实验室课程的变化，将基于问题的方法注入我们的实验室课程，并提供可以集成到我们的课程中的仪器。
