. ConclusionLearning science and engineering concepts should not be a passive process - to understand, astudent must do. Learning should be a hands-on experience. American Chemical SocietyPriestley Medalist Harry B. Gray stated this quite vigorously “I ... would ... do away withintroductory ... lectures completely, and build a first-year course entirely around experiments.’’We believe that these workshops are good examples of the types of active learning exercises thatcan be adapted by others to fit their teaching goals.
