CHEM 240 - Leadership in Chemistry Education


2 hrs (Sem l, II)
In this course, students are trained in group dynamics incorporating learning theory, learning styles, and collaborative learning principles. The CHEM 103  chemistry professor leads weekly meetings of the Peer Leaders in which examples relating to course content and facilitation strategies are addressed. The Peer Leaders are expected to function as “discussion facilitators” and lead their students to work with each other to construct their own answers to the problems. This course is repeatable for credit. 1 lecture hour, 2 laboratory hours.

Prerequisite(s): Permission of instructor and a previous chemistry equivalent to the PLTL chemistry course the student will lead.
