By Brandon J. Cruickshank (Northern Arizona University)
and Raymond Chang is a success guide written for
use with General Chemistry. It aims to help students hone
their analytical and problem-solving skills by presenting
detailed approaches to solving chemical problems. Solutions
for all of the text’s even-numbered problems are
included.
Online Learning Center
The Online Learning Center (new and improved) is a
comprehensive, exclusive website that provides a wealth
of electronic resources for instructors and students alike.
For students, the Online Learning Center contains the animations
and interactivities listed in the Interactive Activity
list at the beginning of each chapter. The Online
Learning Center also features interactive quizzes for each
chapter of the text.
Chang Animations
By Brandon Cruickshank (Northern Arizona University).
Eleven new animations have been added to the current 28
animations. The animations are interactive and specifically
support content and concepts in General Chemistry.
The interactive summary and icons in the text show
which concepts are animated. Animations can be used by
both instructors and students on the Online Learning
Center.
Simulations
There are seven simulations that will be available on the
Online Learning Center, enabling manipulation of variables
for specific chemical concepts including stoichiom-etry,
gas laws, kinetics, equilibrium, and acid/base.
Interactives
Also available are interactives that are simple and fun to
help with learning many concepts on the Online Learning
Center.
Chang Chemistry Resource Card
Our resource card is an easy, quick source of information
on general chemistry. The student will find the periodic
table, basic tables, and key equations within reach without
having to consult the text.
ChemSkill Builder
ChemSkill Builder is a highly regarded tutorial and electronic
homework program that generates questions for
students for every topic in the general chemistry course.
The questions are presented in a randomized fashion with
a constant mix of variables so that no two students will
receive the same questions. The application provides
feedback for students when incorrect answers are entered,
and the answers can be submitted online to an instructor
for grading.
Understanding Chemistry by Lovett/Chang
This brief text is specially written in a friendly and informative
manner for easy learning of the most important chemical
concepts. The authors break the information down into
language for a nonscientist. Cartoons were created to provide
a learning tool to remember basic concepts.
Schaum’s Outline of College Chemistry
By Jerome Rosenberg, Michigan State University, and
Lawrence Epstein, University of Pittsburgh. This helpful
study aid provides students with hundreds of solved
and supplementary problems for the general chemistry
course.
