2014 Biennial Conference on Chemical Education

This symposium aims to serve as a forum in which graduate students may share their work in chemical education research (CER), as well as a venue to network with other members of the CER community. The symposium consists of a series of presentations, each lasting 20 minutes, including two to four minutes for discussion. This is a great opportunity for graduate students in CER to gain feedback and suggestions on how to enhance the quality of their projects from more experienced researchers in the field. It is also a chance for the CER community to learn about new research ideas being explored by CER graduate students.

Presider: Lianne Schroeder, University of Illinois at Chicago and John Balyut, Iowa State University
