Useful in all undergraduate and graduate chemistry courses.
One of the current challenges facing science educators is that of student writing skills. There is a widespread (and correct) impression that science students cannot write and that they need to learn how if they are to succeed as professionals.
Writing-across-the-curriculum programs, offered at a number of institutions, are designed to improve students' rhetorical and writing skills by requiring written coursework in all or most courses (including courses that have traditionally been more quantitative, like chemistry and physics).
Designed exclusively for Instructors, this book discusses issues surrounding the implementation of writing-across-the-curriculum programs in physical science, particularly chemistry. For those who are considering or already offering such programs, this book is a rich resource of clear, practical, step-by-step suggestions and other advice.
