Excellence in Chemistry should begin in school if the country wants to produce quality human resources in
science and technology. Chemistry is a discipline in science which studies macroscopic and microscopic matter,
interaction between materials and production and use of materials (Gilbert and Treagust, 2009). Chemistry as a
subject in schools aims to produce students who have the knowledge and skills in Chemistry. In addition, the
subject can prepare them to enter the field of chemistry and technology at a higher level. Through Chemistry
education, students are guided to develop their intellectual ability to think critically, be creative and innovative.
Furthermore, it is hoped that the students will possess the culture of science and technology and able to create a
caring, dynamic and progressive society. They will be responsible for environment and have admiration for the
creator. Concurrently, application of knowledge and skills which are based on scientific attitudes and values will
enable students to make decisions and solve problems in life more effectively. As a result, they will be able to
explore the treasures of nature, adapt to the environment, make innovative creations, and even manage to
overcome problems and difficulties. Hence, these visions become one of the goals emphasized in the national
curriculum, especially in science education.
