Description:	Periodic table forms part of almost every high school and introductory university level chemistry textbook published on this planet. Despite its usefulness as a conceptual tool for organization of the chemical elements, understanding their properties, predicting new elements and a corrective device, most students con- sider it to be a difficult topic. The objectives of this study are: (1) Review of various aspects in the development of the periodic table based on a history and philosophy of science (HPS) perspective; and (2) Design of a teaching strategy based on the historical aspects in order to facilitate freshman students’ conceptual understanding of the periodic table.
