Chemistry (12)This project is developing laboratory and classroom activities for analytical chemistry and biochemistry that combine both project-based laboratory experiments and Process Oriented Guided Inquiry Learning (POGIL). Concurrent laboratory and classroom courses are introducing students to two chromatography instruments while integrating chromatographic and mass spectral data into classroom activities. This project is extending the use of guided inquiry learning into analytical chemistry as well as developing complementary laboratory and classroom activities that encompass two dimensions of professional education - cognitive understanding and skill development. These activities, with their emphasis on developing initial questions and drawing conclusions from data sets, are also providing additional resources that can be used to prepare students for participation in undergraduate research. The project is assessing progress by several means - communal primary trait analysis, laboratory skills assessment, knowledge surveys, focus groups, and feedback from an external evaluator. The laboratory and classroom activities are being disseminated via the internet, conferences, and publications.

化学(12)这个项目正在开发分析化学和生物化学的实验室和课堂活动，将基于项目的实验室实验和面向过程的指导性探究学习(POGIL)结合起来。同时开设的实验室和课堂课程正在向学生介绍两种色谱学仪器，同时将色谱和质谱学数据整合到课堂活动中。该项目正在将指导性研究性学习的使用扩展到分析化学，并开发包括专业教育的两个方面--认知理解和技能发展--的补充实验室和课堂活动。这些活动的重点是开发初始问题和从数据集中得出结论，还提供了可用于为学生参与本科生研究做准备的额外资源。该项目正在通过几种手段评估进展情况--社区主要特征分析、实验室技能评估、知识调查、重点小组和外部评估者的反馈。实验室和课堂活动正在通过互联网、会议和出版物进行传播。
