Problem solving is central to the teaching and learning of
chemistry at secondary, tertiary and post-tertiary levels of
education, opening to students and professional chemists alike a
whole new world for analysing data, looking for patterns and making
deductions. As an important higher-order thinking skill, problem
solving also constitutes a major research field in science
education. Relevant education research is an ongoing process, with
recent developments occurring not only in the area of
quantitative/computational problems, but also in qualitative
problem solving. The following situations are considered, some
general, others with a focus on specific areas of chemistry:
quantitative problems, qualitative reasoning, metacognition and
resource activation, deconstructing the problem-solving process, an
overview of the working memory hypothesis, reasoning with the
electron-pushing formalism, scaffolding organic synthesis skills,
spectroscopy for structural characterization in organic chemistry,
enzyme kinetics, problem solving in the academic chemistry
laboratory, chemistry problem-solving in context, team-based/active
learning, technology for molecular representations, IR spectra
simulation, and computational quantum chemistry tools. The book
concludes with methodological and epistemological issues in problem
solving research and other perspectives in problem solving in
chemistry. With a foreword by George Bodner.
