Overview
Created by an experienced GOB instructor, Mahaffey’s "Laboratory Experiments for General Organic and Biochemistry" goes beyond simple laboratory procedures, offering students detailed guidance in the lab, as well as connecting chemistry to future careers in healthcare. LabSkills modules, available in WebAssign, introduce students to key laboratory equipment, procedures and safety protocols. Detailed instructor resources provide guidance to teaching assistants who may be teaching the laboratory course for the first time as well as support for using the manual in either a one-term or full-year GOB lab course.
- Color-coded guidance throughout the manual highlights safety concerns and potential empirical errors.
- LabSkills modules, available in WebAssign, offer pre-lab guidance on laboratory equipment, procedures and safety.
- Pause and Reflect reminders encourage students to establish a problem-solving strategy before answering lab questions, while Chem Clues anticipate common challenges.
- A scenario at the end of each chapter connects GOB concepts introduced in labs to healthcare and asks students to respond to profiles of patients.
- Instructor resources include tips for teaching assistants who may be teaching the laboratory course for the first time. Tips focus on safety, chemical setup, disposal and more.
