March 13 T&L Chemistry

[andr...@colorado.edu]

In Spring 2012, we implemented a new “teaching and learning chemistry” course that targets our growing community of future chemistry teachers, current teachers, and future faculty. It is designed to strengthen participants’ chemistry content knowledge and provides them with experience implementing curricular frameworks that use data and evidence to build student understanding of chemistry. Workshop participants will engage in an investigation used in the course, and we will discuss how outcomes from Spring 2012 have informed this semester's implementation.
