ChemistryScience EducationExperimentsInquiryScientific ConceptsScience InstructionI advance some novel arguments for the use of historical experiments in science education. After distinguishing three different types of historical experiments and their general purposes, I define complementary experiments , which can...
Janice provides Zinthrop with a laboratory and apartment in the company offices, and eventually Zinthrop shows off the startling results of his experiments, as he turns a full-grown cat back into a kitten. Janice insists on being the human guinea pig for his experiments, and Zinthrop gives ...
If somebody should be called the father of modern dialysis, the honour should go to a Scotsman, Thomas Graham (Figure 1), who lived from 1805–1869. He was appointed Professor of Chemistry at Anderson’s University, Glasgow, in 1830 at the age of 25 (1),
Down House, the home of Charles Robert Darwin (1809-1882) for the last 40 years of his life, is in the village of Downe in Kent. Here Darwin conducted many experiments, and wrote most of his scientific work (On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection (1859) being the most...
Physics and chemistry programs at the secondary school level in France recommend introducing components of the history of science (HS). Emphasis is placed on a 'cultural' dimension, which is poorly defined but essentially refers to elements of epistemological nature. Moreover, the few examples of ...
Once Cavendish had discovered hydrogen in 1766, the world of science and technology was given a colossal impetus. This article explains some aspects of experiments with hydrogen, and how their results play a key role in enabling us to understand the nature of chemical reactions. A method is ...
This design enables the biochips to be prepared in an array format where each active site (spot) provides SPR information simultaneously. With the SPRi range of equipments, SPR imaging is provided in a robust and sensitive manner. Typical SPRi experiments involve data collection in a fixed angle...
the sea waters some days to weeks before the eruption. The eruption would be characterised by effusive activity and lava domes followed up by irregular explosive activity and possibly vent formation. Based on recent chemistry of eruptive products, lava is expected to form a dome, which would ...
This paper reports the results of a local study conducted on the state of student experiments in chemistry classes in secondary schools for boys during the Taisho era (1912-1926) to identify how central government policy was deployed and implemented by local governments and individual schools.
