Abstract for the conference program
Interdisciplinary Adventures in Laboratory Science Online (ALS-Online) is an online innovative chemistry curriculum that explores the fundamental principles of chemistry through a series of original discovery-based research labs designed to engage students in the discovery of science in the “real world”. The labs are small-scale research labs done “at home” (or lab setting) using “house-hold” chemicals/materials to explore the chemistry of health, food, nutrition, much more. The purpose of this presentation is to share various ways of integrating basic skills in math, reading, and writing into “safe” home-based research and discovery chemistry labs. The overall ALS-Online project and the description of a research and discovery lab will be presented. ALS-Online targets students seeking an introductory science/chemistry course, science elective, nursing and/or health elective, basic math review or dual credit for high school student.
