  Article:   RECENZIE - HEURISTICAL METHODS IN THE STUDY OF CHEMISTRY.

Authors:  MIRON IONESCU.
 
       
         
  Abstract:  book called "Heuristical Methods in the Study of Chemistry" can be epistemologically situated in the field of practical education, of didactics applied to chemistry. The content and structure of the book are an attempt to respond to an ever-present teaching requirement - that of extending methodology from teaching to learning. The author is mainly preoccupied by methodology and especially focused on combining problem-solving with experiential learning as part of a complex body and of heuristics. The option of the author is well justified in this respect as it is clear from the first pages of the book that educational strategies are interlinked with methodology, which is a valuable source of innovation in education. Problem-solving and expe-riential learning are -for sure- premises for a conscientious, rational, intelligent learning which usually occurs when higher levels of intellectual development are incumbed.
