Applications of Reaction Rate Kevin Cunningham
This article presents an assignment in which students are to research and report on a chemical reaction whose increased or decreased rate is of practical importance. The assignment is designed to develop and assess a number of valuable skills and understandings, including the ability to write effectively.

Promoting Graphical Thinking: Using Temperature and a Graphing Calculator To Teach Kinetics Concepts José E. Cortés-Figueroa and Deborah A. Moore-Russo
A Calculator-Based Laboratory (CBL) System, a graphing calculator, and a cooling piece of metal are used in a classroom demonstration to teach key concepts of a first-order chemical reaction. This activity promotes graphical thinking and permits student-centered instruction where the students explore concepts and discover how simple mathematical equations model observable facts (data).
