Annotation -
This laboratory course is designed for students in chemistry teaching combinations who wish to broaden their horizons in conducting experiments in the high school classroom. The course is loosely related to Experiments in Teaching Chemistry I - MC280C04, Experiments in Teaching Chemistry II - MC280C05, and Experiments in Teaching Chemistry Using Instruments - MC280C13.
Graduates of the course will be able to enrich basic chemistry teaching with non-traditional experiments, lead laboratory-oriented chemistry clubs, seminars and other electives.

Requirements to the exam -

Learning outcomes:

  • The student will identify key aspects of pupil and demonstration experiments in the chemistry classroom.
  • The student effectively plans purchases for the chemistry laboratory.
  • The student learns the basic principles of chemistry laboratory equipment and maintenance, thereby providing a safe and efficient environment for experimentation.
  • The student masters theoretically and practically the principles of safe work in the chemical laboratory.
  • The student applies probeware in the classroom.
  • The student uses demonstration experiments to consciously influence the affective component of learning objectives.
  • The student conducts effective experiments that enrich chemistry instruction and increase student interest in hands-on chemistry.
  • The student uses demonstration experiments to visualize general chemistry phenomena (acid-base reactions, redox reactions, exothermic reactions, luminescence, etc.).
  • The student works with energetic compounds and evaluates their properties and safety applications in chemical experiments.
  • The student designs chemical reactions suitable for demonstration purposes in the classroom and carries them out in an effective but safe manner.
  • The student prepares unconventional experiments that enrich the basic chemistry curriculum and broaden students' horizons in laboratory practices.
  • (The student leads laboratory-oriented chemistry clubs, Olympiad seminars, and electives, thereby developing his/her teaching skills.)

Translated with DeepL.com (free version)

A condition for the award of credits is successful attendance (thorough preparation) of all the practical tasks. Final demonstration of 2 selected experiments in a suitable form (including preparation and disposal).

Designing, processing and submission of a factually and formally correct protocol (1 piece) within 14 days after the end of the practicum (with emphasis on the purpose of use, objective and inclusion in the teaching).
