AP Chemistry Lab Manual
Posted by Tim on May 1, 2011 at 1:49pmAs an AP Chemistry teacher, one of the requirements for class is that we do several laboratory experiments throughout the year. For this school year, I have been focusing on covering material from the text book and fitting in experiments when possible. Now that I have almost made it through my first school year here, I have decided to turn some more of my time toward preparing for laboratory experiments.
As part of this preparation, I am putting together a laboratory manual that I will be using for the next school year. The laboratory manual will contain instructions on how to properly prepare for laboratory experiments, how to record data and how to write lab reports. The manual will also include an appendix that covers a discussion on uncertainty and error. Lastly, and the part that will contain the most content, the manual will include the instruction sheets for all the experiments I plan for us to cover throughout the school year. This is all information I have provided to students in the past, but the laboratory manual will provide a single place students can go to for all the information they need. I hope the lab manual will be a helpful document that I can pass out at the beginning of the school year and that students can work through as we do activities in the laboratory.
