摘要:Practical laboratory work is an essential part of the teaching of analytical chemistry. During the assignments, the routine of laboratory work is taught, theory from the lectures is given a concrete form, and the basic skills of using laboratory equipment are acquired. During laboratory work, it is also possible to develop student interaction and problem solving skills. In this research, it was studied how a project work following the principles of problem based learning can be implemented during a tight-scheduled lecture course on atom spectrometric methods. The research pays particular attention on the evaluation of work burden and choosing of the project topics. In addition, the research examines the effects of project work on motivation and learning in students. According to this research, the chosen project topics and project as a working method are suitable to be implemented with a lecture course. The students found the project work to be burdensome but had positive attitudes towards the working method as a whole.
