Laboratory work is an essential part of undergraduate chemistry
courses. The laboratory provides a setting for training not just in
practical hand and instrument skills, but also for other skills
such as planning, recording, interpreting and working in teams.
However, students often learn little from their time in the
laboratory and find it hard to make connections with lectures. Over
half of third-level chemical students have no intention of becoming
practising chemists anyway. Teaching staff may also feel pressured
in relation to manpower, materials, time and safety. Carrying out
exercises before and after laboratory sessions can maximise the
benefit of practical work for higher education students. This books
surveys existing materials for pre-laboratory and post-laboratory
exercises in the chemical sciences. Twenty examples are given, and
guidance is provided for constructing similar exercises.
