Conceptual Questions (CQs): Other Sources of Conceptual Questions
Other sources for examples of the use of conceptual questions are listed below.
The Chemistry ConcepTests Site at the University of Wisconsin-Madison is a group effort that contains many conceptual questions with answers. These questions are designed to be used in lecture as ConcepTests. The site contains numerous questions in General and Inorganic and a few questions in Analytical and Organic.
ConcepTests for both semesters of General Chemistry and for Analytical Chemistry are available from Professor Richard Stolzberg at the University of Alaska Fairbanks. The material tends toward the most fundamental or most misunderstood topics. Some are linked to in-class demonstrations.
A test item bank of examination and/or practice questions in organic chemistry is available from the University of California, Berkely. Many of the items are "concept questions", which are both characteristic of organic chemistry examinations and popular among faculty.
Voyages in Conceptual Chemistry is a collection of 150 problems designed to cover the principles taught in a typical first year chemistry course. Barouch, D. Voyages in Conceptual Chemistry, 1st ed.; Jones and Barlett Publishers: Sudbury, MA, 1997.
A discussion of the background, structure, and development of the general chemistry conceptual exam available from the ACS Examinations Institute is described in Bowen, C. W.; Bunce, D. M. "Testing for Conceptual Understanding in General Chemistry", The Chemical Educator, 1997 2(2).
