%0 Journal Article %T The Systemic Approach to Teaching and Learning: Water Chemistry %A AFM Fahmy %A A Said %J African Journal of Chemical Education %D 2011 %I %X The systemic approach to teaching and learning (SATL) has been developed during the last decade 1-7). SATL techniques have been implemented and evaluated in many different disciplines (chemistry, biology, physics, and math) in all educational levels, but the major SATL applications have been reported on chemistry topics in secondary and tertiary education (2-4). Experimental evidence collected in Egyptian schools is presented to illustrate the efficacy of SATL methods on students¡¯ academic achievements (2, 3). We present here a specific chemically-related example of the application of SATL methods in teaching the chemistry of water. %U http://www.ajol.info/index.php/ajce/article/view/82529
