Abstract

In general, students face great difficulty in understanding certain topics in organic chemistry, which is why the teacher's role in offering new methodologies is necessary. By using practical laboratory classes in Organic Chemistry, it is possible to connect these strategies in the teaching of chemistry at the undergraduate level. Contextualizing problems is essential to link theoretical concepts to laboratory practice and their resolution based on interdisciplinarity, promoting a more comprehensive understanding by relating chemistry to other areas of knowledge.
