MODELS OF TEACHING CHEMISTRY
Abstract
This is a theoretical paper in chemistry describing the various models of teaching chemistry and their characteristics. The author has tried to present
the initiatives of the IUPAC and UNESCO and the Green chemistry Network Centre (GCNC), Delhi University, Delhi, India. Wilkinson says that
the chemistry is a innovative area of work with more theoretical and practical correlations to arrive at the structure of substances and their
properties. The model of the substances and their properties remains as understanding and discussion to the effect of laboratory experimentation or
industrial application. The Chemistry models are growing in number with more explanations and solutions to the problems of nature and man. The
concept maps have helped the teacher and student in acquiring the concepts, understanding, analyzing the data, understanding methodologies for
more close examination and better generalization. With the availability of network and enormous information from research institutions, it may be
possible to arrive at newer models and methodologies for the known problems of nature.
