Chemistry for Engineering Students, 5/e (AE-Paperback)
暫譯: 工程學生的化學，第5版 (AE-平裝本)

本書序言

● 易於自訂的 WebAssign 作業幫助學生掌握核心概念，並透過針對答案的反饋和 Watch It 解題影片了解自己的錯誤。

● 新增的「職業中的化學」區塊介紹多樣化的工程師，這些工程師在各個領域中使用化學，將概念與農業到航空航天等領域相連結。

本書特色

● 洞察特點將化學與工程連結。新的洞察重點放在可持續性上，包括肥料製造、替代能源、電池和塑料等主題。

● 先思考後解題的方法幫助學生在解題之前進行概念化，而「專注於解題」的特點則強調過程而非解答。

● 涵蓋技術進步，例如導電聚合物，將化學與工程課程相連結，而「數學連結」區塊則將化學與數學課程相關聯。

Lawrence S. Brown
Lawrence S. Brown (Ph.D, Princeton University) is a Senior Lecturer and coordinator for the general chemistry for engineers course at Texas A&M University. He received his B.S. in 1981 from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute and his M. A. in 1983 from Princeton University. He was a Postdoctoral Fellow from 1986-88 at the University of Chicago. His research activities include active learning and use of technology in education and integration of chemistry with other subjects in the engineering curriculum. His current efforts are in (i) continued development of the CHEM 107 curriculum, (ii) improving uses of technology in chemical education, and (iii) incorporation of active learning strategies into large classroom settings. These efforts are brought together with the Foundation Coalition, an NSF-supported effort to implement a new model for the education of engineering students. Larry also monitors the CHEM 107 course for Texas A&M's campus in Qatar in the Middle East and has traveled there numerous times.
Tom Holme
Tom Holme (Ph.D, Rice University) is a chemistry professor at Iowa State University and Director of the ACS Examinations Institute. He is active in both computational chemistry and chemical education research and has been involved with the general chemistry for engineers course at both Iowa State and the University of Wisconsin – Milwaukee. Some of his recent publications include: "Designing Chemistry Practice Exams for Enhanced Benefits: An Instrument for Comparing Performance and Mental Effort Measures," (Karen Knaus, Kristen Murphy and Thomas Holme), Journal of Chemical Education, 2009, in press; "Nanoscience Items for Standardized Exams in the Undergraduate Chemistry Curriculum" (Thomas Holme), in Nanoscale Science and Engineering Education: Issues, Trends and Future Directions, ed., A.E. Sweeny & S. Seal, American Scientific Publishers, Stevenson Ranch, CA, 2008; and "Assessing Problem-solving Strategies in Chemistry Using the IMMEX System" in Proceedings of the National STEM Assessment Conference, eds.

**Lawrence S. Brown**
Lawrence S. Brown（普林斯頓大學博士）是德州農工大學的高級講師及工程師通用化學課程的協調員。他於1981年在倫斯勒理工學院獲得學士學位，並於1983年在普林斯頓大學獲得碩士學位。他在1986年至1988年間擔任芝加哥大學的博士後研究員。他的研究活動包括主動學習、教育中技術的使用，以及化學與工程課程中其他學科的整合。他目前的工作重點包括（i）持續發展CHEM 107課程，（ii）改善化學教育中技術的使用，以及（iii）將主動學習策略納入大型課堂環境中。這些努力與基金會聯盟（Foundation Coalition）相結合，該聯盟是由美國國家科學基金會（NSF）支持的，旨在為工程學生的教育實施新模式。Larry還負責監督德州農工大學在中東卡塔爾校區的CHEM 107課程，並多次前往該地區。

**Tom Holme**
Tom Holme（萊斯大學博士）是愛荷華州立大學的化學教授及美國化學學會考試研究所的主任。他在計算化學和化學教育研究方面非常活躍，並參與了愛荷華州立大學和威斯康辛大學密爾沃基分校的工程師通用化學課程。他最近的一些出版物包括：「設計化學實踐考試以增強效益：比較表現和心理努力測量的工具」（Karen Knaus、Kristen Murphy 和 Thomas Holme），《化學教育期刊》，2009年，待出版；「本科化學課程中標準化考試的納米科學題目」（Thomas Holme），收錄於《納米科學與工程教育：問題、趨勢與未來方向》，編輯：A.E. Sweeny 和 S. Seal，美國科學出版社，加州史蒂文森農場，2008年；以及「使用IMMEX系統評估化學中的問題解決策略」，收錄於《全國STEM評估會議論文集》，編輯：D. Deeds 和 B. Callen，美國國家科學基金會，華盛頓特區，2008年。
