Chemistry and measurement

Chemistry can feel like learning a new language. Not only are you dealing with chemical formulas, but also often problem solving with unit conversions, dealing with significant figures in calculations.

If we treat it like a new language, then perhaps we can allow for a more successful approach in learning it. Just like not all classes are equal, not all students have the same approach to solving problems. Let’s use this discussion forum as a way to learn about what works for some people and what does not work. And it can also be a place to revisit for handy resources.
