Using Laboratory Chemicals To Imitate Illicit Drugs in a Forensic Chemistry ActivityShawn Hasan, Deborah Bromfield-Lee, Maria T. Oliver-Hoyo, and Jose A. Cintron-Maldonado This forensic chemistry activity utilizes forensic procedures (chemical spot tests and thin-layer chromatography) on laboratory chemicals that mimic actual street drugs to produce screening results similar to those for controlled substances. Hasan, Shawn; Bromfield-Lee, Deborah; Oliver-Hoyo, Maria T.; Cintron-Maldonado, Jose A. J. Chem. Educ.2008, 85, 813.

Forensics as a Gateway: Promoting Undergraduate Interest in Science, and Graduate Student Professional Development through a First-Year Seminar CourseLouise K. Charkoudian, Jared J. Heymann, Marc J. Adler, Kathryn L. Haas, Kassy A. Mies, and James F. Bonk A first-year, undergraduate seminar in forensics was created, instructed, and revised by graduate students to assist in their professional development. The course incorporates a variety of pedagogical techniques, including lectures, in-class demonstrations, laboratories, student presentations, and mock criminal investigations. Charkoudian, Louise K.; Heymann, Jared J.; Adler, Marc J.; Haas, Kathryn L.; Mies, Kassy A.; Bonk, James F. J. Chem. Educ.2008, 85, 807.

Phlogiston (GCMP)David M. Whisnant Phlogiston: this is a resource in the collection "General Chemistry Multimedia Problems". In this problem we will think back to the last half of the 18th century when modern chemistry was beginning to take place. One of the major problems occupying chemists at the time was combustion. The dominant theory of combustion in the mid-18th century involved a substance called "phlogiston." General Chemistry Multimedia Problems ask students questions about experiments they see presented using videos and images. The questions asked apply concepts from different parts of an introductory course, encouraging students to decompartmentalize the material.
