Abstract

The five projects of the NSF initiative Systemic Changes in the Undergraduate Chemistry Curriculum are about to introduce significant and fundamental changes into introductory chemistry courses. The outlines of these projects show that their goal is that of helping students, often through cooperative efforts, develop skills in dealing with information, procedures, people, and technology by addressing various topics in chemistry.
