Exploring Chemistry: One thing I have learned as a chemistry instructor is that chemistry has many great stories. These stories present themselves in a human context—showing the choices, efforts, strengths, and flaws of human beings. Too often these stories are relegated to boxed essays or the last chapters of a book that rarely get covered, and our students thereby lose the opportunity  to  see  the  impact  chemistry  has  on  their  everyday  lives.  However,  interesting  stories  in  and  of themselves are not sufficient. In the development of each case study, the stories are chosen to engage the students in a meaningful and thought-provoking manner, which leads to students wanting to read more. The concept of learning chemistry by means of narratives from other contexts  and  other  disciplines  has  proven  remarkably  effective.
