Description
Looking for where to start or how to spice up your teaching with student-centered, research-based ideas? This collection of experiences, from new instructors to seasoned ones, includes evidence-based ideas that have been implemented (with varying degrees of success) across diverse chemistry classrooms to improve student engagement. This volume serves as a guide for instructors looking for new teaching techniques to best serve their students. Administrators will also
find this collection useful as they continue to support instructors in their quest to be better educators. This volume also serves as a reminder to all instructors that they are not alone with the struggles they face in (and outside) the classroom.
