Enhancing the Undergraduate Chemistry Curriculum with Gas Chromatography - Mass Spectrometry

化学 (12) 该项目将气相色谱-质谱法 (GC-MS) 纳入化学课程。 《化学教育杂志》中的实验正在被改编以用于课程中的不同级别。 GC-MS 的使用始于入门课程，并将以日益复杂的方式继续用于有机、分析、仪器和高级有机课程，最后用于本科生研究。 通过这种方式，实验将以学生先前的知识为基础，从引导探究开始，随着学生学习更高级的课程，逐渐在实验设计和解释中引入更大的独立性。此外，参加调查课程的学生和参加专业发展活动的在职教师正在通过具有情境基础的有意义的活动来接触这一技术。

Chemistry (12) This project is incorporating gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) into the chemistry curriculum. Experiments from the Journal of Chemical Education are being adapted for use at different levels in the curriculum. Use of GC-MS begins in introductory courses and will continue in increasingly complex ways in organic, analytical, instrumental, and advanced organic courses and finally in undergraduate research. In this way, experiments will build on students' previous knowledge, beginning with guided inquiry and gradually introducing greater independence in experimental design and interpretation as students progress to more advanced courses. Additionally, students in survey courses and in-service teachers participating in professional development activities are gaining exposure to this technique through meaningful activities which have a contextual basis.
