Popis:	This paper presents findings from a project that commenced at The University of Melbourne in 1992 on the teaching of quantitative volumetric analysis skills to the first-year students. We discuss the extent to which the level of laboratory skills of a group of students, in this case with a weak chemistry background and poor experimental ability, can be changed by the introduction of the combination of a computer-assisted learning (CAL) tutorial and video before the first practical exercise. Analysis of feedback data from the tutorial and from video observation during the first laboratory session has shown that understanding and application of skills are improved to a level at least comparable to that of students who have a much better background and experimental ability.
