It can also provide aguarantee for the development and cultivation of students’ personality,which emphasizes the importance and necessity of the AP chemistryexperiment courses.Opening&Practicing Advanced Placements Courses will help toimprove students’ experimental skills, not just for improving students’ability of experiment, also for providing students the space ofpersonalized choice. Furthermore, it will be a good effect to learningattitude, learning style, personality development etc. in the high schoolchemistry education. Therefore, it is feasible theoretically and practically for Opening Advanced Placements Courses.
