Integrating Chemical Information into the Undergraduate Curriculum

Abstract

In spring semester of 2000, the University of Virginia integrated chemical information into the undergraduate chemistry curriculum as part of the institution's information literacy program and to comply with the guidelines of the American Chemical Society (ACS) Committee on Professional Training (CPT) for undergraduate studies. This article describes the various facets of the project. The most important one is the change from the traditional method of teaching chemical information to an experiential one, in order to develop a community of active learners with critical thinking and problem solving skills. This program, in its full implementation, will replace the existing one in content and methodology.
