during group activities vary each week. In-classExplorations and case studies present students with challenging context-rich problems thatrequire teamwork, communication, and time management. The weekly laboratory exercise is anintegral part of our curriculum. Over the course of the semester, students conduct nine laboratoryexperiments that emphasize experimental design. For each one, a guided inquiry portionintroduces the experimental setting under standard conditions. Students then discuss the baselinedata and choose a question to investigate. An experimental design is developed, critiqued by aTA, adjustments are made, and the experiment is carried out. Because our classroom and lab areintegrated, the spirit of discovery carries over from labs

These observations haveprovided useful guidance regarding how the exercise should be structured, and also places in theclassroom component of the course where more thorough instruction is needed in areas likeproblem solving techniques. A few key observations are as follows: 1. The students appear to become well engaged in the tasks related to taking measurements in the laboratory. They tend to show enthusiasm for distributing tasks among the team members and in coming up with plans for how they will execute the measurements. They appear to enjoy the data
