Home Overview Assistantships Admissions ... Contact Faculty Mentor Program As part of its commitment to graduate education, the Department of Chemistry offers an advanced program for development of teaching skills for its graduate students. OBJECTIVES OF THE TEACHING MENTORING PROGRAM. The intent of this program is to acquaint graduate students in chemistry with the practice of creating and operating a high-quality, college-level chemistry course. Its principal feature is the pairing of a graduate student (an Associate) with a department faculty member in the teaching of a regular department course. The goal is to help the Associate become an effective chemistry instructor, and in so doing, to increase the likelihood that the Associate will compete successfully for a college-level teaching position. PARTICIPATION IN THE PROGRAM BY ASSOCIATES . Graduate students participating in the program will be designated as Student Faculty Associates. The Department will attempt to include all interested students in the Program, but each Associate should meet the following criteria. Each participant is expected to: (1) be making satisfactory progress toward an Ph.D. or M.S. degree.

U N I V E R S I T Y O F P I T T S B U R G H Volume IX, Number 1 September 2003 Back to TOC ‘Smorgasbord’ allows students to achieve in diverse ways S triving to be an ever more effective teacher, Joseph Grabowski, Chemistry, is determined to assist his students to achieve more than they think they can. Continually experimenting with new strategies and techniques, Grabowski also views himself as a student who uses the University not only to learn more about teaching but also to share what he learns with colleagues. His passion for university teaching was aroused as an undergraduate: “From my first experience as a college student, I said, ‘Let me play in this sandbox!’ I liked to fiddle around in the science laboratories and thought about ways I could do a better job than the faculty teaching me. (Little did I realize then how difficult teaching really is!) I’ve always had an affinity for the diversity of problems, the breadth of ideas, and the opportunities to work with intellectually talented people, those fountains of creativity who ‘keep me on my toes.’ Fortunately, no matter where I go, there are smart people saying really interesting things.” Some learn well from lectures, while others from books, group activities, individual activities, repetition of simple problems, or mind— challenging problem solving.

U N I V E R S I T Y O F P I T T S B U R G H Volume X, Number 1 September 2004 Back to TOC David Waldeck Photo by Patty Nagle , CIDDE I have been interested in molecular visualization and the potential it holds for students since I first started teaching college students,” comments Lisa Bell-Loncella, Chemistry, University of Pittsburgh at Johnstown. Bell-Loncella is collaborating with David Waldeck, Chemistry, Oakland campus, to extend the capability for molecular visualization to chemistry students at all five of Pitt’s campuses using the CAChe computational chemistry software. “Computational software allows students to visualize concepts as they learn about molecules and reactions. Also, they can attempt things that are impossible with pencil and paper.” Their project is called Computation and Molecular Visualization across the Chemistry Curriculum at the University of Pittsburgh Bell-Loncella explains the importance of molecular visualization software: “Everyone knows that the chemical formula for water, H2O, means each water molecule has one oxygen and two hydrogen atoms. We can draw it as a stick figure or use ball-and-stick “tinker toys,” but such crude models cannot demonstrate relative size, the bond angles, or the distance between molecules. CAChe not only provides visualization capabilities, but also allows students to compute energies and molecular properties that are important in understanding chemical reactions.

The advice which follows draws on the experience of schools and colleges to provide some general points of guidance about managing and implementing effective teaching and learning. These are illustrated by some case studies of good practice on this website. Planning and managing teaching and learning Forward planning and careful management are essential to the development of good practice in the teaching and learning of chemistry. In particular the chemistry department should: share a vision about the purpose of teaching chemistry and its contribution to the aims of the school/college as a whole, ensuring that this vision is shared throughout the school/college and made apparent through actions, for example, open evenings, displays, parental involvement (see case study: Godalming College) select a specification which suits the vision and ethos of the department and has the potential to provide challenges and motivation for students take ownership and turn the specification into a curriculum, using the specification aims, informed by the departmental aims, as the starting point for designing a long-term (two-year) course plan, medium-term plans/schemes of work for units or topics (see case studies: Queen Mary’s College, Gunnersbury School, Godalming College) and short-term lesson plans

S unlight that penetrates the ocean is absorbed as it passes through the surface layers of the water. Since solar radiation does not reach the ocean depths, the bottom of the deep ocean remains largely in complete darkness. However, certain animals in this extreme environment can generate light to communicate with each other, and even to lure prey, thanks to a process known as bioluminescence. Bioluminescence is a form of chemiluminescence - the production of light through chemical means. In contrast to light generated by high temperatures which allows objects to get hot (such as light bulbs, stars, or fireplace pokers), this "cool" process relies on chemical reactions. When chemicals combine, they release the energy that has been stored in their chemical bonds. In chemiluminescent reactions, this stored energy is released as light. In most bioluminescent deep sea animals two basic chemicals - luciferin and luciferase-combine to produce light as a by-product of the reaction. You may also have seen chemiluminescent sticks, bracelets, or other items that depend upon chemical reactions to produce light. If you examine these items closely, you will find that they consist of a sealed vial immersed within another liquid. When the inner vial is crushed, its contents mixes with the surrounding fluid. As the chemicals combine, they generate visible light. In this activity, you'll explore how the temperature of the chemicals that combine affects a chemiluminescent reaction.
