INTRODUCTION
4. The CHEM-STUDY originated in 1960, J. A .Campbell was
mainly responsible for its development. The CHEM-STUDY
4
materials are highly integrated around the
development of concept theories and ideas in
chemistry. The experimental nature of science is the
basis for 0investigation of chemical reactions. It uses
inductive approach i.e. from particular to general.
Emphasis on the structure of chemical systems,
including electron structure the geometrical
arrangement of the atoms, their relative size and shape,
the packing together of atoms and molecules , the force
between them and how these affect their chemistry, is
expected to guide the student in his understanding and
interpretation of the complex chemical formula.
CONTENT OF CHEM-STUDY
5. Emphasis on the structure of chemical systems ,
including electron structure , the geometrical
arrangement of the atoms , their relative size and
shapes , the packing together of atoms and
molecules the forces between them and how these
affect their chemistry, is expected to guide the
student in his understanding and interpretation of
the complex chemical formula.
The text material begins with an overview of the
field of chemistry.
The student is introduced to major generalization
including energy and chemical reactions rate of
chemical reactions, equilibrium and chemical
reactions, stereochemistry, atoms and their
structure, periodicity of chemical properties and
electron structure.
After the generalization have been developed
through experimentation, the students are
expected to continue using what they have learned
in interpreting and
Understanding more complex ideas.

Objectives of chem.-study
6. .To updates chemistry in the light of latest
developments.
To give students a good understanding of the
subject.
To make students aware of the applications of
chemistry in everyday life and in industry through a
study of topics such as fabrics, plastics, detergents,
drugs and insecticides.
To organize content in unifying concepts and
principles.
To provide opportunities for laboratory work.

CONCLUSION
7. 7
CHEM-STUDY course begins with an
overview of chemistry as an experimental
science followed by some fundamental
concepts of chemistry.The course then moves
to a microscopic view of chemical reactions.
The course ends with an introduction to organic
chemistry and bio chemistry. CHEM-STUDY has
led to improvements in laboratory facilities.
The students have been able to learn through
the heuristic method.
