Thermochemistry Interactive Notebook Unit
// Sunday, June 19, 2022 • Nora Walsh
Thermochemistry is an interesting unit to discuss with chemistry teachers, as the depth at which different teachers cover it seems to vary widely. Some teachers cover the topic in much greater depth than I do.

The Sweet and Delicious Chemistry of Brownies
// Wednesday, May 26, 2021 • Scott Donnelly
Like a lot of folks (including students), I love brownies. My teaching style and objectives emphasize the applications of chemistry learned in lecture to everyday consumer products familiar to students.

AACT Science Coaches
// Tuesday, April 30, 2019 • Lauren Stewart
This past school year, I had the opportunity to participate in the AACT Science Coaches program. When I applied for the program, I expected to be partnered with a professor, probably someone who had been in academia for quite awhile. I thought that this person could share their research with my students and maybe help me with some content questions.

Break the Ice with Mystery Blocks
// Thursday, February 15, 2018 • Stephanie O'Brien
In an effort to align my lessons with the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS), I have tried to take the content I have traditionally taught, and shift the design to focus on student engagement with the science and engineering practice
My Favorite Small Research Project this Year
// Sunday, May 19, 2013 • Tom Kuntzleman
I’d like to report on one of the end-of-year research projects that two of my general chemistry students completed during class this year. If you’d like read more about these end-of year research projects in general, click here.
