Proposal of exercises of the discipline of organic chemistry to strengthen the learning of the nomenclature of alcohols in students isced-huambo

Abstract

Teaching organic chemistry is not an easy task because it is not just about passing on information about a particular subject or simply passing nomenclature or classification rules; it is necessary for the student to see the importance of what is being taught, however it is necessary to teach for life, as this makes teaching more dynamic. The objective of the present work is to propose a system of exercises of alcohol nomenclature in ways that contribute to the improvement of the teaching and learning process of organic chemistry in ISCED - Huambo students. The methods employed were documentary analysis and the logical history. The results show a system of alcohol nomenclature exercises aimed at strengthening classification, naming and formulating skills, which imply the student's knowledge of the IUPAC nomenclature rules. Methodological steps are developed in solved exercises and another set of exercises are proposed in a way that contributes to strengthening the learning of IUPAC rules in alcohols. The proposal is developed by the extraordinary importance of alcohol in the field of organic chemistry and uses such as solvents, drugs and fuels.
