I love ADI. I found them several years ago and I have been using ADI labs in chemistry ever since. These labs have everything, Student problem solving, NGSS 3Dimensions, Engagement, Writing, Argumentation, and Hands-on labs often with real world application. I loved the Chem book so much that when I started teaching 10th grade Integrated Science I bought the rest of the set. I even use these in my AP and IB Chemistry and Physics Classes. Each activity can be scaled up or down to meet your needs. Can't recommend these enough
Excellent Resource
A must have for all Chemistry classes. Argument Driven Inquiry lessons and the accompanying training has changed learning in my classroom forever.
Gold standard for scientific inquiry.

Argument Driven Inquiry in Chemistry goes above and beyond the typical inquiry lesson in ways that dramatically elevate student interest and engagement and that teach the process of scientific discovery better than any other strategy that I have utilized. When students view the results of an experiment as a claim that they must defend, ownership of the experiment undergoes a complete metamorphosis. The authors create ways for chemistry students at all levels to experience the entire process of scientific research in easy-to-execute investigations that pose the challenge of determining an answer to a guiding question, presenting an experimentally determined answer as an argument supported by evidence, justifying the evidence as relevant and supported by background knowledge, presenting the argument, evidence, and justification in a poster presentation, and submitting a written report for peer review and revision before final presentation as a completed product. It is, from question to presentation, the authentic collegiate research experience happening at the high school level in the high school laboratory. The term “game-changer” is a gross understatement. This is the most dramatic paradigm upheaval and the most exciting innovation in my entire career as a chemistry facilitator, and I could not recommend it more highly as a reference for well-developed investigations, a method for shifting existing lab investigations, and a springboard for writing original inquiry experiences in this format.
