Chemistry is a conceptual subject and, in order to explain many of
the concepts, teachers use models to describe the microscopic world
and relate it to the macroscopic properties of matter. This can
lead to problems, as a student's every-day experiences of the world
and use of language can contradict the ideas put forward in
chemical science. These titles have been designed to help tackle
this issue of misconceptions. Part 1 deals with the theory, by
including information on some of the key alternative conceptions
that have been uncovered by research; ideas about a variety of
teaching approaches that may prevent students acquiring some common
alternative conceptions; and general ideas for assisting students
with the development of appropriate scientific conceptions. Part 2
provides strategies for dealing with some of the misconceptions
that students have, by including ready to use classroom resources
including copies of probes that can be used to identify ideas held
by students; some specific exercises aimed at challenging some of
the alternative ideas; and classroom activities that will help
students to construct the chemical concepts required by the
curriculum. Used together, these two books will provide a good
theoretical underpinning of the fundamentals of chemistry. Trialled
in schools throughout the UK, they are suitable for teaching ages
11-18.

This volume offers a critical examination of a variety of
conceptual approaches to teaching and learning chemistry in the
school classroom. Presenting up-to-date research and theory and
featuring contributions by respected academics on several
continents, it explores ways of making knowledge meaningful and
relevant to students as well as strategies for effectively
communicating the core concepts essential for developing a robust
understanding of the subject.
Structured in three sections, the contents deal first with
teaching and learning chemistry, discussing general issues and
pedagogical strategies using macro, sub-micro and symbolic
representations of chemical concepts. Researchers also describe new
and productive teaching strategies. The second section examines
specific approaches that foster learning with understanding,
focusing on techniques such as cooperative learning, presentations,
laboratory activities, multimedia simulations and role-playing in
forensic chemistry classes. The final part of the book details
learner-centered active chemistry learning methods, active
computer-aided learning and trainee chemistry teachers use of
student-centered learning during their pre-service education.
Comprehensive and highly relevant, this new publication makes a
significant contribution to the continuing task of making chemistry
classes engaging and effective.

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.
Chemistry is an experimental subject, and what can be more
stimulating than carrying out a laboratory experiment where the
results are memorable either by their visual nature or by their
tying together of theory. This collection of 100 chemistry
experiments has been developed with the help and support of
teachers throughout the UK. Each student worksheet is accompanied
by a teachers' notes sheet which gives details for teachers and
technicians on apparatus and chemicals, timing, context, teaching
tips, background theory and answers to any questions on the student
worksheets. The student worksheets are also available on the web,
and can be downloaded or adapted as necessary by teachers. Classic
Chemistry Experiments is designed as a teaching aid to help
communicate the excitement and wonder of chemistry to students, and
is ideal for both experienced chemistry teachers and to scientists
from other disciplines who are teaching chemistry. Additional
resources can be downloaded from:
http://www.rsc.org/learn-chemistry/resource/res00001938/classic-chemistry-experiments-book#!cmpid=CMP00000454
For everybody teaching chemistry or becoming a chemistry teacher,
the authors provide a practice-oriented overview with numerous
examples from current chemical education, including experiments,
models and exercises as well as relevant results from research on
learning and teaching. With their proven concept, the authors cover
classical topics of chemical education as well as modern topics
such as every-day-life chemistry, student's misconceptions, the use
of media or the challenges of motivation. This is the completely
revised and updated English edition of a highly successful German
title.
