Science ed = memorisation❌ it doesn't have to be! I enjoyed this with Ryan Bowen (a real up-and-coming⭐️) & the inimitable Melanie Cooper brilliance What we found when we asked students to describe the ways they are expected to think about rxns in OCLUE / traditional courses:

Spot the difference: Thomas: "I am still happy to be here and still happy to be manager of a strong team" Emma: "... there's a war going on in Ukraine, there are bigger situations" bbc.com/sport/football…

So excited to hear our keynote speakers at #SMEC22. Now all I need to do is submit my abstract.. deadline is today! CASTeL DCU Institute of Education DCU Science and Health

I've a short commentary in JCE - labs are getting bigger, brighter, more stimulating in every way. We've thought a lot about cognitive overload, but what about sensory overload? The chemistry lab can be a trying environment to be in, let alone think in? pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

Great start to the School of Education Teaching and Learning Day discussing ‘mattering’ and ‘belonging’ framed from the perspective of EDI #beingseen #beingheard #beingappreciated
