| Abstract |
|
The Molecular Science systemic reform project, which
has just begun its third year, is developing
network-deliverable curricula for the first two years of
Chemistry.1 The goals of the project are to prepare students who have a deep
understanding of chemistry concepts and principles, have
learned collaboration skills, can use the modern-technology tools
of the chemist, and can write about chemistry. In addition,
the project is integrating technology and telecommunications
into the instructional process and shifting the instruction
from lecture to active student learning. Faculty from six
institutions (Crossroads School, East Los Angeles College,
Pasadena City College, Mt. San Antonio College, California State
University, Fullerton [CSUF], and the University of
California, Los Angeles [UCLA]) form the core of the project. This
cross-section represents the common and shared responsibility
that exists for teaching the first two years of chemistry and
the diversity of students in the nation.
