Enhancing the Undergraduate Chemistry Experience WIth High Field NMR

化学(12)为了加强本科课程，该大学的化学和物理系正在获取高场核磁共振。该仪器在系里的许多课程中被广泛使用。高场核磁共振的获得使目前的一些实验室能够为学生提供更多的教育和信息，并使一些新实验的引入成为可能。核磁共振波谱仪用于有机化学、仪器分析、无机化学、普通化学和几门高级化学课程(物理化学、生物化学和高级有机化学)。本科生也受益于能够在校园里使用高场核磁共振。正在实施的实验室实验改编自各种来源，但主要来自《化学教育杂志》。这些已发表的许多实验都是由美国国家科学基金会资助的项目产生的。改编材料的其他来源包括实验室文本(修改和增强)和期刊上的研究文章。附近佐治亚州海岸社区学院的学生也使用核磁共振，作为现有项目的一部分，在该项目中，他们访问大学，并利用校园中没有的仪器。该仪器的另一个用途是在大学的社区外联计划中，高中生访问大学并进行实验室实验。练习已经开发出来，将高中高级选修化学课程引入核磁共振，核磁共振是最广泛使用的科学仪器之一。

Chemistry (12) In order to enhance the undergraduate curriculum, the Department of Chemistry and Physics at the university is acquiring a high field NMR. The instrument is widely used in a number of courses in the department. The acquisition of a high field NMR allows a number of the current laboratories to be more educational and informative for the students, as well as making possible the introduction of a number of new experiments. The NMR spectrometer is used in organic chemistry, instrumental analysis, inorganic chemistry, honors general chemistry, and in several upper level chemistry courses (physical chemistry, biochemistry, and advanced organic chemistry). Undergraduate research students also benefit from having access to a high field NMR on campus. The laboratory experiments being implemented have been adapted from a variety of sources, but primarily from the Journal of Chemical Education. Many of these published experiments have been generated from NSF supported projects. Additional sources of the adapted materials include laboratory texts (modifications and enhancements), and research articles in journals. The NMR is also used by students at nearby Coastal Georgia Community College as part of an existing program in which they visit the university and make use of instrumentation not available on their campus. An additional use of the instrument is in the university's Community Outreach Program in which high school students visit the university and carry out laboratory experiments. Excercises have been developed to introduce high school advanced placement chemistry classes to NMR, one of the most widely used pieces of scientific instrumentation.
