Toughest part of Nomenclature
The hardest part of this unit was without a doubt, the Frontier Chemistry Project. It was very time consuming and tedious. It was a bit of shock coming from just learning about the types of nomenclatures to finding out which medicinal plants in which habitats do what. Finding the correct medicinal plant for either the Eastern Deciduous Forest or the Tall Grass Prairie was hard enough. Then, you had to find the active chemical in that plant and state the formula and a picture of its structure. Doing this for 25 different maladies was very grueling, and I know that it's not going to get any easier from here on out. Therefore, I really have to work hard on these projects and study for the tests to make sure I get the grade I desire.

I definetly agree with your comment that the Fronteir Chemistry Project was the hardest part of the unit. The project itself was technically not too hard, however, the research could sometimes become trickly escpecially when I tried to fiend active chemical ingredients. I completely agree that "it was very time consuming and tedius". Hopfully the rest of the projects wont be as annoying as this one.
ReplyDeleteYour post used very good language to descibe your feelings such as "grueling" and "shock". Overall, this was a good overview of what you thought of the project itself.
