The exciting new Third Edition expands on the visualisation pedagogy from co-author Stacey Lowery Bretz and makes it even easier to implement in the classroom. Based on her Chemistry Education Research on how students construct and interpret multiple representations, art in the book and media has been revised to be more pedagogically effective and address student misconceptions. New projected visualisation problems help instructors assess students' conceptual understanding in lecture or during exams. A new Interactive Instructor's Guide provides innovative ways to incorporate research-based active learning pedagogy into the classroom.
Fully aligned to the latest College Board's curriculum framework, Chemistry: An Atoms-Focused Approach helps students understand chemistry at the micro, macro, and symbolic level. Author and chemistry education researcher, Stacey Lowery Bretz has incorporated her research on how students construct and interpret multiple representations into clear visualization pedagogy, which emphasizes the particulate nature of matter and helps students become expert problem solvers. This pedagogy extends beyond the book into the AP (R) teaching, learning, and assessment package. AP (R) is a trademark registered and/or owned by the College Board, which was not involved in the production of, and does not endorse, this product.

While there is growing interest in participatory research to address issues around environmental sustainability, the focus of analysis tends to be on the results or products of the research rather than the processes involved. Addressing this gap, the authors draw on their experience of specific mapping techniques, based on different systemic concepts and theories, that have helped facilitate, explore and capture different understandings of the relationships, perspectives and boundaries within situations involving environmental sustainability. The development of visual mapping techniques is explained and practical case studies describe their application in environmental sustainability projects, from working with farmers and their networks to using visual mapping with indigenous communities and managing coastal environments. Each case study provides a 'real world' project example from researchers with extensive experience of using these techniques to research different aspects of environmental sustainability over several decades.
All general chemistry students face similar challenges but they use their textbook to meet those challenges in different ways. Some read chapters from beginning to end, some consult the book as a reference, and some look to the book for problem-solving help. Chemistry: The Science in Context, Third Edition was written and designed to help every kind of student, regardless of how they use the book.
