Chng, J. J. Kenneth; Patuwo, Michael Yudistira – Journal of Chemical Education, 2021
We described and ran a lesson plan for a build-your-own visible-range spectrophotometer undergraduate project as inspired by the research of Bougot-Robin, Imperial College London. Students were required to improve a basic Raspberry Pi spectrophotometer design and evaluate their improvements. Students learned firsthand how to manage instrumental…

Bougot-Robin, Kristelle; Paget, Jack; Atkins, Stephen C.; Edel, Joshua B. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2016
It is not uncommon for students to view laboratory instruments as black boxes. Unfortunately, this can often result in poor experimental results and interpretation. To tackle this issue, a laboratory course was designed to enable students not only to critically think about operating principles of the instrument but also to improve interpretation…
