- Abstract
Undergraduate students tend to find organic chemistry rather challenging and we as teachers of the subject are constantly trying to find new ways to enthuse students and help them understand and enjoy the subject. Active learning has taken centre stage today and one such student-centric teaching strategy, process-oriented guided inquiry learning has been explored by us. In this article we present our experience, the advantages of this teaching methodology and the likely challenges in implementation.
