"A research-based text and assessment package that helps students visualize chemistry as they solve problems. The exciting NEW Sixth Edition expands on the visualization pedagogy from coauthor Stacey Lowery Bretz and makes it even easier to implement in the classroom. Based on her chemistry education research on how students construct and interpret multiple representations, art in the book and media has been revised to be more pedagogically effective and to address student misconceptions. NEW projected visualization questions help instructors assess students' conceptual understanding in lecture or during exams. A NEW Interactive Instructor's Guide provides innovative ways to incorporate research-based active learning pedagogy into the classroom"--

The first atoms-focused text and assessment package for the AP(R) course

Not just Atoms-First, Atoms-Focused. An atoms-first text and media program that goes beyond a reorganization of topics, emphasizes the particulate nature of matter throughout the book, art, and problems, and helps students develop their molecular visualization skills as they learn to become expert problem-solvers.

A research-based text and assessment package that helps students visualize chemistry as they solve problems

The Fifth Edition's new coauthor Stacey Lowery Bretz, uses visualization tools--based on Chemistry Education Research and focused on the particulate nature of matter--to help students self assess what they know before, during, and after each chapter. Smartwork5 allows instructors to use this pedagogy as a diagnostic, and students receive hints and answer-specific feedback within the system. New ChemTour animations further support visualization at a molecular level and are integrated throughout the media package.
