Students can perceive the laboratory environment in a variety of ways that can affect what they take away from the laboratory course. This qualitative study characterizes undergraduate students’ perspectives of a project-based Organic Chemistry laboratory using the theoretical framework of phenomenography. Eighteen participants were interviewed in a semi-structured format to collect their perspectives of the Organic Chemistry lab. Eight qualitatively different ways in which students perceived the lab were uncovered and an outcome space was derived. The findings of this work are intended to inform the design of the undergraduate laboratory curriculum in chemistry that facilitate better student learning. Implications and suggestions for design of laboratory courses based on the results of this work are also presented.

学生对基于项目的有机化学实验室环境的看法：现象学方法

学生可以以多种方式影响实验室环境，从而影响他们从实验室课程中学到的东西。这项定性研究使用现象学的理论框架来表征大学生对基于项目的有机化学实验室的看法。半结构化方式对18名参与者进行了采访，以收集他们对有机化学实验室的看法。发现了八种在质量上不同的学生感知实验室的方式，并得出了结果空间。这项工作的发现旨在为化学本科实验课程的设计提供参考，以促进更好的学生学习。还提出了根据这项工作的结果对实验室课程设计的启示和建议。
