This brief supplemental guidebook assists students in mastering the difficult concept of pushing electrons that is essential to success in Organic Chemistry. With an investment of only 12 to 16 hours of self-study your students will have a better understanding of how to write resonance structures and will become comfortable with bond-making and bond-breaking steps in organic mechanisms. The low-tech, paper-on-pencil approach uses active involvement and repetition to teach students to properly push electrons to generate resonance structures and write organic mechanisms with a minimum of memorization. Compatible with any organic chemistry textbook.
