The laboratory course described in the lab manual emphasizes experimental design, data analysis, and problem solving. Inherent in the design is the emphasis on communication skills, both written and oral. Students work in groups on open-ended projects in which they are given an initial scenario and then asked to investigate a problem. There are no formalized instructions and students must plan and carry out their own investigations.

Melanie Cooper is Associate Professor of Chemistry at Clemson University and Director of Undergraduate laboratories in the Chemistry Dept. Dr. Cooper has been the recipient of several NSF awards to develop new laboratory curricula, and she has become very interested in the incorporation of communication and cirtical thinking skills into chemistry courses.
