Abstract

Posters have proven to be effective teaching tools at both the high school and college level, as detailed in numerous JCE papers. With the availability of large format printers in recent years, faculty can prepare custom-made wall hangings for hallways and other areas where students congregate. We have designed a series of posters for the beginning analytical chemistry lab. This ongoing project shows how technology can upgrade a time-tested instructional tool.
