Description Introductory Chemistry - An Active Learning Approach (4th Ed) by Mark S. Cracolice and Edward I. Peters Cengage Learning | March 2009 | ISBN-10: 0495558478 | PDF | 816 pages | 32 mb http://www.amazon.com/Introductory-Chemistry-Active-Learning-Approach/dp/0495558478 In INTRODUCTORY CHEMISTRY: AN ACTIVE LEARNING APPROACH, Cracolice and Peters use a question-and-answer format so readers can actively learn chemistry. This approach is reflected in three words of advice and encouragement that are repeated throughout the book: Learn It Now! Each chapter includes an Everyday Chemistry section that illustrates how chemistry is applied in daily life. The fourth edition integrates new features such as technological resources, coached problems, and enhanced art and photography, all of which dovetail with the authors' active learning approach. About the Authors Mark S. Cracolice is professor of chemistry, department chair, and the director for the Center for Teaching Excellence at the University of Montana. He earned his Ph.D. from the University of Oklahoma in 1994 under the supervision of Professor Michael R. Abraham. He also has served as an associate instructional specialist at the Chemistry Learning Center at the University of Wisconsin, Madison. Dr. Cracolice specializes in chemical education and teaches freshman chemistry and graduate courses in chemical education. Ed Peters received his B.S. from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in 1943 in Chemical Engineering and his M.S. from Northwestern University in 1947. He had a long and varied career. He worked as an engineer for the United States Navy and was employed as a chemistry teacher for various high schools and colleges in California. He retired in 1987.
