The Chemistry CollectiveThe Chemistry Collective is a collection of virtual labs, scenario-based learning activities, and concepts tests which can be incorporated into a variety of teaching approaches as pre-labs, alternatives to textbook homework, and in-class activities for individuals or teams. It is organized by a group of faculty and staff at Carnegie Mellon University for college and high school teachers who are interested in using, assessing, and/or creating engaging online activities for chemistry education.

Recent NewsIn April, The ChemCollective received the Science Prize for Online Resources in Education (SPORE Award). Our essay, "The ChemCollective - Virtual Labs for Introductory Chemistry Courses" was published in the April 30th issue of Science. Also in April, we presented a workshop on our interdisciplinary work with MIT and Kent State, "How molecular structure and motion lead to emergent macroscopic properties" at this year's Materials Research Society Annual Spring Meeting in San Francisco, California. In March, we presented a talk, "Can nationwide chemistry reform efforts make a difference?" at the ACS Spring National Meeting, in San Francisco, California. In November 2009, we presented a talk, "Virtual Labs, Animations, and the ChemCollective" at this year's annual MAALACT meeting at Washington College in Chestertown, MD. |
