Chemistry Education: Best Practices, Opportunities and Trends (repost)

Javier García-Martínez, Elena Serrano-Torregrosa, "Chemistry Education: Best Practices, Opportunities and Trends"


2015 | ISBN: 3527336052 | 792 pages | PDF | 9 MB

This comprehensive collection of top-level contributions provides a thorough review of the vibrant field of chemistry education. Highly-experienced chemistry professors and education experts cover the latest developments in chemistry learning and teaching, as well as the pivotal role of chemistry for shaping a more sustainable future.


Adopting a practice-oriented approach, the current challenges and opportunities posed by chemistry education are critically discussed, highlighting the pitfalls that can occur in teaching chemistry and how to circumvent them. The main topics discussed include best practices, project-based education, blended learning and the role of technology, including e-learning, and science visualization.


Hands-on recommendations on how to optimally implement innovative strategies of teaching chemistry at university and high-school levels make this book an essential resource for anybody interested in either teaching or learning chemistry more effectively, from experience chemistry professors to secondary school teachers, from educators with no formal training in didactics to frustrated chemistry students.

Oxidation and Antioxidants in Organic Chemistry and Biology [Repost]

Oxidation and Antioxidants in Organic Chemistry and Biology by Evgeny T. Denisov


English | Mar. 29, 2005 | ISBN: 0824753569 | 1024 Pages | PDF | 7.92 MB

Providing a comprehensive review of reactions of oxidation for different classes of organic compounds and polymers, and biological processes mediated by free radicals, Oxidation and Antioxidants in Organic Chemistry and Biology puts the data and bibliographical information you need into one easy-to-use resource. You will find up-to-date information about mechanisms of action of antioxidants, their reactivity, reactions of intermediates, synergism, and antioxidants with cyclic mechanism action. Supplying useful, quantitative data in tables that make the information easy to find, the authors highlight the peculiarities of mechanisms involved in the oxidation of hydrocarbons, polymers, and different organic compounds. The book provides tabulated values of strengths of C-H bonds of oxygen-containing compounds; of O-H bonds of hydroperoxides, alcohols, and acids; and of attacked antioxidant bonds. The authors collect and discuss over 3000 rate constants of different reactions of peroxyl radicals in oxidation and co-oxidation. They describe a new semiempiric theory of reactivity of reactants in elementary oxidative steps and the algorithm of calculation of activation energies, rate constants, and geometrical parameters of the transition states of free radical reactions. After elucidating the chemistry and kinetics of antioxidant action, the book covers oxidative processes that occur in biological systems.

Teaching Secondary Chemistry (Ase Science Practice)

Teaching Secondary Chemistry (Ase Science Practice) by Michael Reiss


English | Jan. 9, 2012 | ISBN: 1444124315 | 318 Pages | PDF | 10.78 MB

This book will provide invaluable support whether you are a newly-qualified science teacher, an experienced teacher of biology who wants to extend the range of strategies and approached used, a physicist or chemist who has to teach biology, or a student training to be a teacher. Each chapter covers a broad section of the curriculum and is divided into topics. For each topic the book covers: The pupil"s possible Previous knowledge A suggested Teaching sequence with activities necessary to cover the basic biology Warnings about pupils" misconceptions, common problems with individual activities and safety issues Further activities that develop the pupils" understanding of the topic Enhancement ideas that relate the science to everyday contexts and provide new ideas for experienced teachers Suggestions for using ICT This second edition reflects the latest requirement of the National Curriculum, GCSE specifications, ideas from recent curriculum development projects and the current availability of IT. This book draws on the experience of a wide range of teachers and those involved in science education. It has been produced as part of the Association for Science Education"s commitment to supporting science teacher by disseminating best practice and new ideas to enhance teaching.
