Describes a revised chemistry sequence, designed for paramedical students, which does not require a high school chemistry prerequisite. The major thrust of the revision is toward the use of biochemically significant substances and phenomena as a framework to describe chemical principles. (GS)

Describes an organic chemistry course designed as a modification of the Keller plan; lists the basic assumptions of the course design; outlines how the course was conducted; and compares the grade distribution to that of a traditional class. (GS)

Describes a course designed to provide college juniors and seniors with maximum theoretical and practical exposure to every available analytical instrument. (GS)

The program objectives are to instruct students in laboratory techniques, experimental procedures, evaluation of results, and laboratory project design. Integration of techniques which may span several areas of chemistry is emphasized in the solution of problems. Current course content of the program is listed. (GS)

Describes a synthesis laboratory that is a two-semester sequence for students who have had general chemistry as well as prior or concurrent experience with organic chemistry. Outlines the compounds synthesized, techniques used, and possible special projects. (GS)

Describes a simple tensiometer which provides good approximations to Young's Modulus and acceptable tensile test curves. (Author/GS)

Describes a method for offering additional topics in high school chemistry at minimal cost and at times convenient to the student. The method utilizes an independent study approach, using a slide sorter and cassette player. (GS)

Describes an experiment designed for second-level summer school chemistry students enrolled in Great Britain's Open University. (GS)

Outlines the theory of chemical potentiometry, describes the experimental procedure for free fluoride determination, and presents sample data of fluoride concentration for various brands of toothpaste. (GS)

Describes an experiment which monitors the population of the lowest triplet state by directly observing phosphorescence intensity as a function of time. Reviews the theory concerning triplet state lifetimes, describes the experimental apparatus and procedure, and presents the method and examples of data analysis. (GS)
