Presents several demonstrations in spectroscopy. (RH)

Presents the results of a questionnaire sent by the American Chemical Society (ACS) to university chemistry departments concerning their use of student questionnaires in evaluating instructors and courses. (MLH)

Describes a dry-lab experiment in which the student is provided with a set of fluorescence spectra of quinine for study and interpretation. (MLH)

Describes a survey of a group of British high schools to determine teacher familiarity with and use of two Nuffield chemistry curriculum projects. (MLH)

Describes undergraduate experiments concerning three topics: oxygen carriers, nitrogen fixation, and metal activated enzymes. (MLH)

Describes a college-level chemistry laboratory format in which students individually schedule their laboratory time and use a slide-tape medium in place of a laboratory lecture. (MLH)

Presents three activities: (1) the investigation of the purity and stability of nicotinamide and flavin coenzymes; (2) desk-computer fitting of a two-exponential function; and (3) an interesting and inexpensive solubility product experiment for introductory chemistry. (RH)

Presents a ten-item multiple choice quiz and the correlations between grades on this quiz and grades in an undergraduate physical chemistry course at Purdue University. (MLH)

Describes an experiment in which a racemic mixture of a coordination compound is resolved. (MLH)

Describes an experiment which quantitatively determines glucose by a spectrophotometric measurement of the colored complex formed between glucose and an amine. (MLH)

Describes a method in which glass plates are coated with adsorbent, using a technique which is cheap, rapid, and reliable; avoids the need for expensive, commercially-available thin layer chromatography equipment. (MLH)

Discusses ways to improve doctoral programs and possible alternatives, such as self-directed nondegree studies. (MLH)

Discusses a statistical report on chemical and chemical engineering higher education; the findings indicate an increase in 1975 B.S. and Ph.D. graduates in chemistry, a decrease in these degrees in chemical engineering, and an increase in female graduates in both fields. (MLH)

Describes the methodology and results of a student-teacher research project on the chemistry of cave waters. (MLH)
