Incorporating a Meaningful Research Experience into the General Chemistry Laboratory Curriculum Through Implementation of Equipment for Materials Characterization

化学（12）这个项目是使学生在第二学期一般化学实验室课程参与一个真实的研究经验，涉及合成和表征新型氟化物钙钛矿作为潜在的颜料材料。该项目源于大学参与REEL（研究经验，以提高学习）联盟，其中包括15个俄亥俄州学院和大学致力于引入实验室为基础的研究到第一和第二年的课程。而以前的学生分析X射线和光谱数据收集的其他人现在他们正在收集自己的数据。到目前为止，学生们已经制备了大约100种（大部分未报道）钙钛矿氟化物相关的组合物。在准备这些材料时，普通化学专业的学生提供了一种合成和表征的组合方法。该项目还包括一个组成部分，即资助的设备使地质系的本科生课程能够纳入实践实验。

Chemistry (12)This project is enabling students in the second semester general chemistry laboratory course to participate in an authentic research experience involving the synthesis and characterization of novel fluoride perovskites as potential pigment materials. The project stems from university's participation in the REEL (Research Experiences to Enhance Learning)consortium which includes 15 Ohio colleges and universities dedicated to introducing laboratory based research into first and second year courses. Whereas previously students analyzed X-ray and spectroscopy data collected by others now they are collecting their own data. So far, about 100 (mostly unreported) perovskite fluoride-related compositions have been prepared by students. In preparing these materials, the general chemistry students are providing a combinatorial approach to synthesis and characterization. This project also involves a component in which the funded equipment is enabling integration of hands-on experiments in undergraduate courses in the Geology Department.
