In this post, Kevin Morse outlines an easy-to-implement procedure to help students reflect on teacher feedback for improved understanding. 

This month's AP Teach meeting will discuss common misconceptions students have about electrochemistry and the chaos of Unit 9.

In this blog post, Anthony Stetzenmeyer describes several ways he has started to use AI (Chat GPT) in this chemistry classroom. Anthony describes, in detail, ways AI can streamline lesson planning and help teachers maximize their prep time. 

Egg cartons and beverage holders can be used as models of atoms, with their dimples representing orbitals. Each dimple can hold up to two objects such as milk jug caps, plastic eggs, and cup pieces to represent electrons in the orbitals. Partially overlapping the trays by stacking the dimples represents chemical bonding and produces molecular models resembling Lewis structures. The models can be easily made from materials that can be readily found grocery stores and fast-food restaurants.

This article describes a game aimed at helping students become comfortable using dimensional analysis. Designed to mimic the popular card game UNO, MOLE-O encourages students to think about how to set up a stoichiometry problem utilizing a deck of UNO-like playing cards.
