Richard Schwenz

Assessing student knowledge is tremendously important to teachers of physical chemistry. Richard Schwenz explains the evolution of the ACS exam in physical chemistry and provides insight into the process by which questions are written. Whether or not you use the ACS exam in your courses, this chapter will help you formulate better questions of your own. 

The development work was funded in part by National Science Foundation (NSF) CCLI-EMD 0127541. The development of the Physical Chemistry in Practice DVD would not have been possible without the efforts by the following Peggy O Neill-Jones, Beatriz Cisneros, Joseph Farris, and Justin Heisler. The authors would also like to thank the researchers who graciously allowed us into their laboratories William Bradley, Thomas C. Brunold, Carlos Bustamante, Eric Cornell, Gerard Cote, Sossina Haile, Bill Hinsberg, Frances Houle, Stephen Leone, John D. Roberts, and Richard Schwenz.

In 1993 Richard W. Schwenz and Robert J. Moore published a book, under the auspices of the American Chemical Society, entitled Physical Chemistry Developing a Dynamic Curriculum (/). This book followed a 1988 project by the Pew Mid-Atlantic Cluster on revision of the physical chemistry laboratory curriculum, and NSF funded workshops in 1990 and 1991 on physical chemistry curriculum development. Together they called for substantial changes in the content of the physical chemistry lab.
