Chemical Education Research Cluster
化学教育部门专注于创新教学方法，以提高学生在课堂和实验室中的参与度和学习。 Examples include the use of Peer-Led Team Learning, flipped classroom, and personal response systems. In the laboratory, students experience a dynamic environment in which they are exposed to both the practice and theoretical aspects of chemistry with the goal of preparing students to become independent thinkers through the use of inquiry learning.

Our Research
Faculty in the Chemical Education Division primarily focus on educating undergraduates in the classroom and in the teaching laboratories.
Some faculty in this division conduct research with undergraduates and master's students. In addition to the faculty in the Chemical Education Division, many other research-active faculty perform research with undergraduates and master's students. Please contact an individual faculty member if you are interested in working with them on an independent research project.
