Synopsis

Communication skills are an essential part of all university degree courses, and chemistry is no exception. The aspects of communication skills identified in this book are:
* Information retrieval
* written delivery
* visual delivery
* oral delivery
* team work and
* problem solving

Material includes background information for tutors and a detailed tutor's guide, as well as suggestions for sources of extra material or alternative ways of running the exercise.

Trialled at several institutions, this book can be used as a modular text, or as a set of "stand alone" exercises. It is aimed at students in the penultimate year of a chemistry degree.
