    Ökad förståelse för kemi genom arbete med bilder
    (Myndigheten för nätverk och samarbete inom högre utbildning, 2008) Dahlman, Ylva; Boman, Mats; SLU Uppsala; Inst för Materialkemi Uppsala universitet
    Specific art activities were introduced at the chemistry program at Uppsala University during the academic year 2006/07 at three different university levels: a) the preparatory year for natural science students, b) the seventh semester in the chemical engineering program, and c) the PhD program. During 2007/08, the seventh semester activities were repeated (with some alterations). The background is that many students are capable of learning what the textbook says, but a considerable number still lack the necessary insight to comprehend the subject. This project tries a different pedagogical approach—one which not only permit students to articulate what they have learned, but also allow them to demonstrate their understanding. Many of the students who have participated in the project have now been able to formulate what they do not understand and, by so doing, increase their knowledge.
