  • Angela Mahaffey

    Angela L. Mahaffey, PhD., is a clinical assistant professor at the Marcella Niehoff School of Nursing, Loyola University Chicago, where she has designed didactic and laboratory GOB chemistry courses for undergraduate health professions students. Dr. Mahaffey has published her research on GOB Chemical Education for health sciences majors in journals, including the Journal of Chemical Education, and presented at national Conferences. She has also taught and written a human physiology for health professions textbook for undergraduate health sciences students.

  • LabSkills modules, available in WebAssign, offer pre-lab guidance on laboratory equipment, procedures and safety.

  • Pause and Reflect reminders encourage students to establish a problem-solving strategy before answering lab questions, while Chem Clues anticipate common challenges.

  • A scenario at the end of each chapter connects GOB concepts introduced in labs to healthcare and asks students to respond to profiles of patients.

  • Instructor resources include tips for teaching assistants who may be teaching the laboratory course for the first time. Tips focus on safety, chemical setup, disposal and more.
