Projects That Assist With Content In A Traditional Organic Chemistry Course, John Esteb, John Magers, Luanne Mcnulty, Anne Wilson

Projects that engage undergraduate students in content-based courses, such as organic chemistry, must relate to the material and provide useful tools for the divergent needs of the students. There are few examples of these types of projects in the literature. Herein, we describe two projects, the reaction notebook and the end-of-semester synthesis activity. Each project is designed to stimulate student ownership of the material and leads to engagement with the content of the course.
