CERVANTES-NEMER, B. Virginia; LOREDO-ENRIQUEZ, Javier; DORIA-SERRANO, María del Carmen  and  FREGOSO-INFANTE, Arturo. The pedagogy concerning chemical education: The experience by means of a teaching experimental procedure. Educ. quím [online]. 2008, vol.19, n.2, pp.96-107. ISSN 0187-893X.

In order to improve chemical education a teaching procedure has been developed, implemented and evaluated, that offers a set of strategies to assist student learning difficulties, in order to promote student's conceptual change. This teaching procedure also proposes a course of action that guides instruction and invites the professor to increase his/her teaching abilities and improve chemical education. To test it a general chemistry lab manual has been elaborated, using microscale techniques. In order to assess its efficacy, a cuasiexperimental study has been carried out to examine student academic efficiency and interest in chemistry topics. Analysis resulted in statistically-proven increased grades as compared to those using the socalled traditional procedure.
