Topics

The conference would like to bridge the gap between chemistry researchers and chemistry teachers. Except the academic research dissemination, the conference is devoted to increase the opportunities of the communication between theory and empirical teaching. The discussion topics are based on the real needs of in-service teachers to create. After the conference, we look forward to increase the communication between chemistry scholars and chemistry teachers as well as to provide more and more efficient assistance in real classroom instruction. Follows are the topics in the conference:

 

1.     New era of inter-dislinary chemistry

2.     Students’ conceptions and conceptual change

3.     Analysis of classroom discourse and instructional strategies
