Use of an FT-NMR Spectrometer to Improve the Undergraduate Chemistry Curriculum

化学（12）该奖项允许收购傅里叶变换核磁共振光谱仪（FT- NMR），并将其纳入我们整个课程的课程。该仪器显著增强了学生的实验室体验，将现代技术融入课堂，并扩大了课程设置。从研究和教育文献改编的实验，并实施到我们的课程集中在仪器的多核能力，记录二维光谱的能力，并通过线加宽实验进行定量分析的能力。课程的变化正在演变为NMR被纳入一个新的光谱学课程，从三个（目前）单独的课程的一部分合并，它是模块化，专题课程和新的综合实验室的发展变得至关重要。所有级别的学生都很容易获得自己的光谱，从而获得了宝贵的，动手的经验，在现代研究和/或质量控制实验室具有广泛的适用性的仪器。

Chemistry (12)This award has allowed the acquisition of a Fourier Transform Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectrometer (FT- NMR) and its incorporation into courses across our entire curriculum. This instrument is significantly enhancing student laboratory experiences, incorporating modern technology into the classroom, and expanding course offerings. Experiments adapted from the research and educational literature and implemented into our curriculum are focusing on the multinuclear capabilities of the instrument, the ability to record 2-dimensional spectra, and the ability to do quantitative analysis through line-broadening experiments. Curricular changes are evolving as the NMR is incorporated into a new spectroscopy course, merged from a portion of three (currently ) separate courses, and it is becomes essential for the development of modular, Special Topics courses and new integrated laboratories. Students at all levels are readily obtaining their own spectra and thus are gaining valuable, hands-on experience with an instrument that has wide applicability in a modern research and/or quality control laboratory.
