Web-Based Applications for Chemical Education I've noticed that higher education instructors in the field of Chemistry are often very receptive to using the Internet and using instructional tools from the Web. Possibly that's because several of the professional associations in Chemistry emphasize web links for instructional resources. This conference presents some interesting examples of using the Web for instruction. _____JH "Web-based applications have had, and will continue to have, a profound impact on chemical education.  This online conference will bring together a variety of presentations representing recent work in this important field of chemical education." ________ The Spring 2006 CONFCHEM, a free online conference covering the impact of the Web in chemistry education, gets underway later this week. Jean-Claude Bradley is presenting on the chemistry teacher’s changing role in the age of blogs, podcasts, screencasts, wikis, and games. I wonder if anyone is keeping a list of free online conferences in higher education. [Syndication for Higher Ed] 3:26:52 PM    COMMENT []
