of the five foundation areas. The in-depth experience built technical expertise, provides a more sophisticated view of chemical concepts, fosters critical thinking, promotes skill development, and gives student opportunity for intellectual growth and rigorous thinking that comes from engaging in instrumental analysis topics at a high level. Instructional strategies focused on hands-on instrumentation experiments and analysis. Written assignments focused on writing a detailed laboratory notebook and laboratory reports using a custom Vernier Laboratory Manual.
