Take your beginning chemistry students farther than you ever imagined!

The IntuitivChemistry books will guide your student through the traditional chemistry curriculum - and make it intuitive in three unique ways.

  1. We are all visual learners. Every student exercise uses simple diagrams that are easy to learn, diagrams designed to have extraordinary power and depth. The diagrams are based upon the mental models that all of us use to make sense of the world, so they feel intuitive. And they are tested carefully against demands of good scientific theory. You will use the Ross model of the atom, a simplified version of the atom that works the way that young people think. Students can use the Ross model to make insightful explanations and accurate predictions of chemical behaviour.
  2. You will follow the traditional curriculum in a slightly re-arranged order, to avoid confusion and build student competency. Competent students are confident students!
  3. We will provide you with a model of science that directs the student's attention to the student's own understanding. Each experiment tests the validity of the student's own thinking.

Each two-page student activity requires students to represent chemical processes four different ways: Balanced chemical equation, word equation, Dalton diagram equation and mass equation. These four representations reinforce student understanding of chemical change. In addition, each activity requires students to use complete sentences and paragraphs to express their own thinking.
