This edited volume of papers from the twenty first International
Conference on Chemical Education attests to our rapidly changing
understanding of the chemistry itself as well as to the potentially
enormous material changes in how it might be taught in the future.
Covering the full range of appropriate topics, the book features
work exploring themes as various as e-learning and innovations in
instruction, and micro-scale lab chemistry. In sum, the 29 articles
published in these pages focus the reader's attention on ways to
raise the quality of chemistry teaching and learning, promoting the
public understanding of chemistry, deploying innovative technology
in pedagogy practice and research, and the value of chemistry as a
tool for highlighting sustainability issues in the global
community. Thus the ambitious dual aim achieved in these pages is
on the one hand to foster improvements in the leaching and
communication of chemistry-whether to students or the public, and
secondly to promote advances in our broader understanding of the
subject that will have positive knock-on effects on the world's
citizens and environment. In doing so, the book addresses (as did
the conference) the neglect suffered in the chemistry classroom by
issues connected to globalization, even as it outlines ways to
bring the subject alive in the classroom through the use of
innovative technologies.
