Abstract
The “Mystery Lab” is a laboratory experience that allows students to apply critical thinking, writing, and organic chemical laboratory skills. Students are challenged to solve a medical mystery presented as a short story that includes both situational information as well as clues to needed procedures. The students must identify which of a number of samples is tainted with a poison, separate the poison from the rest of the sample, then identify the poison using provided analytical data. Students complete the lab report by writing the end of the story presented in the lab handout. Creativity is encouraged!
