Cooperative Chemistry Lab Manual https://www.mheducation.com/cover-images/Jpeg_400-high/0073402729.jpeg 5 9780073402727 The laboratory course described in the lab manual emphasizes experimental design, data analysis, and problem solving. Inherent in the design is the emphasis on communication skills, both written and oral. Students work in groups on open-ended projects in which they are given an initial scenario and then asked to investigate a problem. There are no formalized instructions and students must plan and carry out their own investigations.
