Abstract
The main aims of the subject Experimentation in Physical Chemistry are: learning to organize a laboratory notebook, structuring and analyzing the information generated in the laboratory in a scientifically correct way, understanding the operation of the instruments used and learning and management of concepts and calculations made during the experimental work. For the evaluation of the subject to arrange to all of the objectives, and experimental probe has been added recently. This fact made convenient to provide new material to facilitate the preparation of the probe. As new technologies are today more feasible we made a group of videos attainable through internet about the way of functioning of the laboratory instruments and six self-assessment tests about concepts and calculations. During the first year of application a small amount of students used the material, but those who had used it indicated that it was useful to prepare exams due to the additional information provided (more than in manuals and outline of each practice) and because it let them detect misleading ideas and exercise with concepts and calculations.
