Synthesis Explorer: A Chemical Reaction Tutorial System for Organic Synthesis Design and Mechanism PredictionJonathan H. Chen and Pierre Baldi Synthesis Explorer is an interactive tutorial system for organic chemistry that enables students to learn chemical reactions in ways previously unrealized. Pedagogical experiments in undergraduate classes at UC Irvine indicate that the system can improve average student examination performance by ~10%. Chen, Jonathan H.; Baldi, Pierre. J. Chem. Educ.2008, 85, 1699.

Experimental Design and Optimization: Application to a Grignard ReactionNaoual Bouzidi and Christel Gozzi This 5-week project, which systematically investigates optimizing the synthesis of benzyl-1-cyclopentan-1-ol, constitutes an initiation into research methodology and experimental design to prepare the student-engineer for an industry internship. Other pedagogical goals include experience in synthetic techniques, obtaining reproducible yields, and using quantitative analysis methods. Bouzidi, Naoual; Gozzi, Christel. J. Chem.

Saying What You Mean: Teaching Mechanisms in Organic ChemistryJ. Brent Friesen Ways to maintain clarity and consistency when teaching reaction mechanisms in organic chemistry include the use of balanced reaction equations, avoiding the use of shortcut notations, including key electrons and bonds in structural representations, and distinguishing between covalent and ionic bonds. Friesen, J. Brent. J. Chem. Educ.2008, 85, 1515.
The Reaction Rolodex; A Web-Based System for Learning Reactions in Organic ChemistryEric Mahan This Web-based system of note cards has been developed to aid students in learning the vast number of reactions encountered in organic chemistry. A thorough knowledge of these reactions is essential for success in first- and second-semester organic chemistry courses. The reactions are organized by functional group and can be chosen from a menu at the left side of the Web page. Once a particular reaction has been selected, the main frame displays the reactant(s) and reagent(s) along with a question mark in place of the product. After considering the reaction as long as needed, the user can click the question mark to reveal the reaction product. Clicking the product will again hide the answer and regenerate the question mark so that the reaction can be practiced again. Selecting other reactions from the menu on the left allows them to be practiced in the same manner.
