Join us online for Seminar 4 in the NSDL Series for this free teacher professional development program in partnership with the National Science Teachers Association (NSTA).
Water is an important substance. Life, as we know it, depends on water. This Web Seminar will focus on resources you can use to teach your students about the chemistry of water such as the molecular structure of water and its behavior in chemincal reactions. We will explore a variety of resources including: Molecules 360, a collection of molecular structures; the Periodic Table Live!, an interactive periodic table; Multimedia Problems, questions based on videos that bring together diverse chemical concepts; DigiDemos, chemical demonstrations online; and molecular scale animations. We will also focus on cutting-edge research and learn about some aspects of water that are not yet well understood.
Join presenters Dr. John Moore, W. T. Lippincott Professor and director of the Institute for Chemical Education, and Dr. Lynn Diener, Assistant Professor, Mount Mary College in Milawaukee, Wisconsin and guests Jon Holmes, Editor of Journal of Chemical Education Online and Dr. James Skinner, Chemistry Professor at the University of Wisconsin-Madison for this seminar for educators of grades 9-12.
