ACD/Labs 6.0

ACD/Labs 6.0

The 30 week-long online course, used by 15,000 students in higher education in the U.S. in its first year, guides students through materials covered in accompanying lectures by assessing the understanding of concepts through online homework and informative tutorials. A significant portion of the course is specifically dedicated to spectroscopy, and uses ACD/Labs’ technology to predict NMR spectra from structure, guiding students through an exploration of the spectra generated by a given compound.

For the majority of schools, access to expensive analytical instruments, such as NMR spectrometers, is either very limited, because of the cost and availability of this technology, or non-existent. By partnering with ACD/Labs, Pearson has ensured all of the students enrolled in its My Chemistry course will receive a strong foundation in the field of spectroscopy.
