hands-on ways for students to learn science at home—safely. Author Michael Horton promises that students who conduct the labs in Take-Home Chemistry as supplements to classroom instruction will enhance higher-level thinking, improve process skills, and raise high-stakes test scores. Many of the exercises involve skills such as measuring, graphing, calculating, and extrapolating graphs, and cover topics such as moles, chromatography, chemical reactions, and titration. Each lab includes both a student page and a teacher page and provides an objective, a purpose, a materials list, notes, and post-lab questions, making Take-Home Chemistry a useful tool for improving how students learn chemistry.
