| Popis: | This account reports building a community of practice for organic chemistry instructors. With support from Chemistry Collaborations, Workshops, and Communities of Scholars (cCWCS), a group of organic chemistry faculty facilitated multiple workshops to introduce active learning techniques to their colleagues across the country. A Web site, organicers.org, has been developed to serve as a community hub to aid faculty creating more student-centered environments in their classrooms. It serves as a repository for useful materials such as active learning questions, exams, syllabi, and lab experiments among others. The community of practice for organic chemistry instructors interested in active learning is expanding through participation and collegial support. |
