Connecting Undergraduate/Analytical Courses to Modern Analytical Chemistry

将以项目和主动学习技术的形式开发应用模块，以提供化学测量原理的坚实基础，并激发化学专业和非专业学生的兴趣，用于入门分析课程。这些模块将解决从生物、环境或材料科学的当前研究中得出的分析问题。学生将负责提出和评估解决问题的分析方案：他们将举办研讨会并设计自己的实验室实验。多学科咨询委员会将在问题选择和模块开发方面指导投资促进机构。为期两周的教师研讨会将提供使用这些模块的培训。将使用万维网主页分发有关模块的信息，并允许用户分享使用它们的经验。模块最终将由商业出版商分发。

Application modules in the form of projects and active learning techniques to provide a strong foundation in the principles of chemical measurement and to pique the interest of both chemistry majors and non-majors will be developed for use in introductory analytical courses. The modules will address an analytical problem drawn from current research in biological, environmental or materials science. Students will be responsible for proposing and evaluating analytical protocols to solve the problems: they will conduct workshops and design their own laboratory experiments. A multidisciplinary Advisory Council will guide the PIs in problem selection and module development. A two-week faculty workshop will provide training in the use of these modules. A World Wide Web home page will be used to distribute information about the modules and will allow users to share experiences using them. Modules will ultimately be distributed by a commercial publisher.
