This was Per s educational concept To give the student immediately the research literature and then support this with advanced lectures and seminars and forcing the student himself/herself to find out the necessary mathematics and numerical methods needed. The concept we today try to use in project education and problem based learning. And it functioned. Today many educational systems try to introduce this educational scheme to get the learner to be accountable for his/her own learning.

Last but not least Barke and Sileshi [20] formulated a Tetrahedral-ZPD chemistry education metaphor as another framework to prevent students misconceptions (see Fig. 2.4). If chemical education is to be a discipline, it has to have a shape, structure, clear and shared theories on which testable hypotheses can be raised. At present we are still in some respects dabbling in chemistry education alchemy, trying to turn lead into gold with no clear idea about how this is to be achieved. Some factions proclaim a touchstone in some pet method such as Problem-Based Learning or Computer-Assisted Learning or Multimedia Learning or Demonstration, while others are dabbling in...

Problem-Based Learning Objectives. At the end of each chapter, the list of learning objectives now includes the numbers of homework problems that relate to each objective. Thus, a student, or an instructor, can select problems that apply specifically to a given topic.
