Taking an evidence-first big picture approach, Chemistry: Human Activity, Chemical Reactivity encourages students to think like a chemist, develop critical understanding of what chemistry is, why it is important and how chemists arrive at their discoveries. Flipping the traditional model of presenting facts and building to applications, this text begins with contexts that are real-life and matter to students – from doping in sports, to the chemistry behind the treads of wall-climbing robots. Informed by the latest chemical education research, Chemistry: Human Activity, Chemical Reactivity presents chemistry as the exciting, developing human activity that it is, rather than a body of facts, theories, and skills handed down from the past. Along with the innovative MindTap Reader and OWLv2 learning platform, this text uses unique case studies and critically acclaimed interactive e-resources to help students learn chemistry and how it is helping to address global challenges of the 21st century.

Consisting of 11 interactive lab modules, Bridging to the Lab motivates students to learn by offering real-life problems in a virtual environment. Students make decisions on experimental design, observe reactions, record and interpret data, perform calculations, and draw conclusions from their results. Bridging to the Lab is offered as a booklet that describes every lab, explains how to use them, and provides a code to access the lab modules online. A tracking feature records and enters student responses into a protected online database so instructors can see how a student navigated through the module. For students without Internet access, the booklet also comes with a CD-ROM that contains the modules, but without the tracking feature. Worksheets for each module are provided so students can record and turn in their responses.
