Abstract
Laboratory instruction has long been a staple of science education. This study investigated how laboratory instruction supported and enhanced the understanding of material taught in lecture and how it impacts student attitudes and teacher attitudes. Results suggested that the laboratory instruction showed no significant improvement of the students' understanding of material taught in lecture, but many students found this style of instruction enjoyable, as did the teacher.
