Chemistry (12) The goal of this project is to incorporate Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) into all levels of the undergraduate chemistry curriculum at Nashville State Community College in order to enhance students' learning experiences and broaden the appeal of our chemistry program. The project is responding to the expectations of the American Chemical Society and recent recommendations by the National Research Council to include the latest developments in science and technology in introductory chemistry curricula. Laboratory experiments from the chemical education literature that utilize FTIR are being adapted for use in introductory chemistry, general chemistry, organic chemistry, and in biology and biotechnology courses. In addition, the FTIR is being utilized to provide hands-on activities for students from a high school located on campus. The presence of the FTIR is enhancing our ability to provide students with the technical skills and motivation to pursue professional careers in science. The impact of this curricular upgrade on student learning and interest in the subject is being evaluated and the results will be disseminated to the larger community.

化学（12）本项目的目标是将傅里叶变换红外光谱（FTIR）纳入纳什维尔州立社区学院本科化学课程的各个层次，以提高学生的学习经验，扩大我们的化学课程的吸引力。 该项目响应了美国化学学会的期望和国家研究理事会最近的建议，将科学和技术的最新发展纳入化学入门课程。 利用FTIR的化学教育文献中的实验室实验正在被改编用于入门化学，普通化学，有机化学以及生物学和生物技术课程。 此外，傅里叶变换红外光谱仪还被用于为校园内一所高中的学生提供实践活动。 FTIR的存在增强了我们为学生提供技术技能和追求科学职业生涯的动力的能力。 目前正在评估这一课程升级对学生学习和对这一主题的兴趣的影响，评估结果将向更广泛的社区传播。
