Synopsis
World of Chemistry was developed specifically for use in high school chemistry classes. It is known for its accessibility with its use of excellent visuals, numerous problem-solving examples, wide range of end-of-chapter exercises, and real-world applications. A unique Table of Contents keeps student needs in mind-measurements and calculations are taught right before they are needed rather than several chapters earlier, to avoid having to re-teach the mathematics. Macro-to-micro organization introduces the "language" of chemistry early-formula writing, equations, moles, etc.- and delays coverage of atomic theory and bonding until later.
Active learning strategies include a conceptual approach to problem solving, worked-out examples, and chapter review that incorporate critical thinking. Problem-solving support for students includes examples in the text paired with worked-out solutions that demonstrate the reasoning used to solve the problem. Differentiated learning accommodation includes reading support, a Meeting Individual Needs Toolkit, leveled practice problems, team learning worksheets, and a full range of tech support products.
