A systems based approach to the teaching of instrumental chemical analysis
Report
Hull, R., & Arotsky, J. A systems based approach to the teaching of instrumental chemical analysis

Instruments are taking an increasingly important role in chemistry and other sciences.
Modern instruments are designed to optimise performance. As a consequence the operation
of them is highly automated and there is little indication of how they ar... Read More about A systems based approach to the teaching of instrumental chemical analysis.

Interactive learning in a level 1 module
Presentation / Conference
Booth, K., & James, B. Interactive learning in a level 1 module. Presented at Education in a Changing Environment, University of Salford, UK

Changes were made to the teaching method and examination paper for a Level 1 Mechanics module taken by a cohort of physics students with the aim of encouraging deep learning. The co-operative learning approach of Johnson et al (1991) was used to pos... Read More about Interactive learning in a level 1 module.

Improving the quality of learning through the promotion of deep learning in a knowledge orientated discipline
Report
James, B., Booth, K., & Donnelly, S. Improving the quality of learning through the promotion of deep learning in a knowledge orientated discipline

Concern has been expressed that formal lecturing and examination methods produce
students with a surface approach to learning, rather than the deep approach, which,
since it is the basis of lifelong learning, is increasingly becoming an essential... Read More about Improving the quality of learning through the promotion of deep learning in a knowledge orientated discipline.
