Over the last decades several researchers discovered that children, pupils and even young adults develop their own understanding of "how nature really works". These pre-concepts concerning combustion, gases or conservation of mass are brought into lectures and teachers have to diagnose and to reflect on them for better instruction. In addition, there are ‘school-made misconceptions’ concerning equilibrium, acid-base or redox reactions which originate from inappropriate curriculum and instruction materials. The primary goal of this monograph is to help teachers at universities, colleges and schools to diagnose and ‘cure’ the pre-concepts. In case of the school-made misconceptions it will help to prevent them from the very beginning through reflective teaching. The volume includes detailed descriptions of class-room experiments and structural models to cure and to prevent these misconceptions.

100 Chemical Myths deals with popular yet largely untrue misconceptions and misunderstandings related to chemistry. It contains lucid and concise explanations cut through fallacies and urban legends that are universally relevant to a global audience. A wide range of chemical myths are explored in these areas; food, medicines, catastrophes, chemicals, and environmental problems. Connections to popular culture, literature, movies, and cultural history hold the reader’s interest whilst key concepts are beautifully annotated with illustrations to facilitate the understanding of unfamiliar material. Chemical Myths Demystified is pitched to individuals without a formal chemistry background to fledgling undergraduate chemists to seasoned researchers and beyond.

This book discusses the importance of identifying and addressing misconceptions for the successful teaching and learning of science across all levels of science education from elementary school to high school. It suggests teaching approaches based on research data to address students’ common misconceptions. Detailed descriptions of how these instructional approaches can be incorporated into teaching and learning science are also included. The science education literature extensively documents the findings of studies about students’ misconceptions or alternative conceptions about various science concepts. Furthermore, some of the studies involve systematic approaches to not only creating but also implementing instructional programs to reduce the incidence of these misconceptions among high school science students. These studies, however, are largely unavailable to classroom practitioners, partly because they are usually found in various science education journals that teachers have no time to refer to or are not readily available to them. In response, this book offers an essential and easily accessible guide.

Common misconceptions underlie many fears about what causes cancer. Misconceptions about the Causes of Cancer examines the scientific evidence from studies in humans, animal cancer tests, exposures to naturally occurring and synthetic chemicals, and methods used to evaluate and regulate cancer risks. Those wishing to disentangle facts from hype will read about the science showing that: Cancer rates are not soaring in the United States and Canada. Synthetic chemicals at levels found in the environment have not been shown to be an important cause of cancer. Reducing pesticide residues is not an effective way to prevent cancer. Human exposures to potential cancer hazards are not primarily to synthetic chemicals. The toxicology of synthetic chemicals is not different from that of natural chemicals, and natural chemicals make up 99.9% of chemical exposure. High-dose animal cancer tests do not provide enough information to assess human cancer risks at the usual levels of exposure. Pesticides and other synthetic chemicals are not likely to be disrupting hormones. Current regulatory policy of low, hypothetical risks is not effective in advancing public health. Book jacket.

Chemical education is essential to everybody because it deals with ideas that play major roles in personal, social, and economic decisions. This book is based on three principles: that all aspects of chemical education should be associated with research; that the development of opportunities for chemical education should be both a continuous process and be linked to research; and that the professional development of all those associated with chemical education should make extensive and diverse use of that research. It is intended for: pre-service and practising chemistry teachers and lecturers; chemistry teacher educators; chemical education researchers; the designers and managers of formal chemical curricula; informal chemical educators; authors of textbooks and curriculum support materials; practising chemists and chemical technologists. It addresses: the relation between chemistry and chemical education; curricula for chemical education; teaching and learning about chemical compounds and chemical change; the development of teachers; the development of chemical education as a field of enquiry. This is mainly done in respect of the full range of formal education contexts (schools, universities, vocational colleges) but also in respect of informal education contexts (books, science centres and museums).

"This briefing document flags up the more serious misconceptions that exist around chemicals and suggests straightforward ways for writers and presenters in the lifestyle media to evaluate them. It is not a 'here's the science bit'; rather, it is intended to open a conversation that promotes a stronger connection between lifestyle commentary and chemical realities"--p. 2.
