Chemistry Laboratory Manual For Teachers To assist with Caribbean Secondary Examination Certificate School Based Assessments. | 2017 INTRODUCTION Laboratory Practicals are very important to the teaching and learning of Chemistry. The practical activities outlined in this document can be used as a guide in conducting School ssment (SBA) in Chemistry for the Caribbean Secondary Examination Based A: Certificate (CSEC). The mark schemes are included to give you guidance. Be reminded that the SBA component of this subject is valued at 20 % of your final grade and failure to submit the laboratory report in the SBA component will result in an automatic fail. These practical exercises are designed to give you hands-on experience to assist you in better understanding certain concepts in Chemistry and are to be completed in your laboratory practical book during class. Your books will NOT be taken home, as they are the property of Caribbean Examination Council. ‘Scanned with CamSeanner RATIONALE assist Chemistry teachers of CSEC.
