Abstract
The Summer Chemistry Workshop at Armstrong Atlantic State University is a graduate course designed to meet a broad spectrum of needs of in-service secondary science teachers. The workshop addresses multiple challenges faced by in-service science teachers and provides them with the tools required for effective laboratory instruction. It incorporates a number of topics related to laboratory instruction, including keeping chemistry content current and highlighting its universal relevance, learning (usually for the first time) how to safely store and dispose of hazardous chemicals, and establishing a synergistic relationship between secondary and university science faculty. An overview of the workshop and its advantages are presented.

Chemistry Teacher Connection

The "Chemistry Teacher Connection" (CTC) is especially for high school chemistry teachers. For only $40/year, it offers an online-only subscription to CLIC along with membership in the Division of Chemical Education, normally $65/year. CTC subscribers receive access to all articles and supplements from 1996 through the current issue.


C&EN CLICs

Through special arrangement with the ACS, JCE High School CLIC is now able to provide subscribers with online access to Chemical & Engineering News articles that have been selected specifically for secondary science instructors and their students. 


JCE Collections Available
Occasionally, collections of JCE back issues become available for donation to individual teachers, schools, or libraries. JCE matches collections with interested recipients. Recipients pay shipping costs or pick up the collection.
