Chemical Education

Chemical Education outlines the interdisciplinary field initiated in the late 1970s, referring to the study of various dimensions and issues related to the teaching and learning of chemistry. Though considered young when compared to other established branches of chemistry, Chemical Education has been contributing significantly towards the teaching and learning of chemistry from elementary to university level. From its inception, the field has been undergoing major changes across the world and chemistry teachers need to take cognizance of these changes and adopt them suitably. Chemistry is a fundamental science, which touches all aspects of human life and greatly contributes to human development. The book enlightens chemistry teachers with the issues related to assessment and evaluation, problem solving and learning and assessment in chemistry laboratories, new teaching methodologies involving co-operative learning, and e-materials and their use.
