| In the spring of 2006 first year chemistry and biochemistry students concluded their general chemistry lab course with a three week authentic research experience in which they synthesized and characterized a series of new lanthanide complexes in conjunction with an ongoing department faculty research initiative. The students were able to complete the work which subsequently led to a publication. The activity was organized to provide students an opportunity to experience a research lab environment within the constraints of a general chemistry instructional laboratory program. The success of the activity was evaluated through the use of student journals, lab reports, and follow-up surveys of the student the following academic year. |
