Chemistry for Science Teachers is a course comprising of three modules with the intention of boosting the confidence of science teachers who are teaching chemistry.
This course is most suited to teachers who may be:
- relatively new in post
- teaching chemistry outside their own subject specialism
- keen to increase their own understanding and confidence to teach chemistry within a 11–16 secondary science programme
Each module comprises a series of four sessions, held weekly or monthly, depending on the term. By completing all four sessions, teachers will qualify for a certificate of attendance to add to their professional development portfolio/record.
In advance of the module, we will provide information on 1–2 practicals, which we will ask participants to carry out prior to the relevant session, ready to discuss with the facilitator and fellow participants.
Prerequisites
Participants must be members of Teach Chemistry to access this course and must be a teacher in a educational establishment within the UK or ROI.
Additional information
All practical activities follow CLEAPSS and SSERC guidelines and are accompanied by videos and technician notes.
