Education in Chemistry

When it comes to reaction mechanisms, you can't possibly teach every combination of reactants and their transfer of electrons – so how do you ensure students absorb and apply their learning? Set your students up for success with these approaches 👇️ #iteachchem #edusky edu.rsc.org/ideas/build-...

Discover how a new publication from the EiC team is supporting new science teachers: edu.rsc.org/rsc-educatio... #edusky

🌍 From fertiliser disruption during the war in Ukraine to shipping risks in the Strait of Hormuz, current events offer a powerful way to explore the Haber process in context. Find out how to build learners’ understanding of chemistry 👇 edu.rsc.org/ideas/use-gl... #iteachchem #edusky

⏱️It's TIME to inspire, motivate and empower your learners to overcome learning barriers with this toolkit: edu.rsc.org/ideas/take-t... #iteachchem #edusky

How many hours do you work? Not just in the classroom, but marking, prepping... How does it compare to the 50 ish hours claimed in a recent DfE report? Read this to find out 👉🏼 edu.rsc.org/feature/how-... #sciteachuk #chemed #scienceteacher

What's on your reading list this summer? One of our latest recommendations? 📚A speculative thriller with an all-knowing AI 📚 A love story set at Nasa 📚 Science book of the year from @thetimes.com Or will you check out the full list online 👇🏽? edu.rsc.org/feature/eics... #TBR #sciteachuk #goallin

Why is finding the value of x when calculating bond energy changes so difficult when we move x? Use Ian McDaid's map for maximum marks to help learners navigate their way from misconceptions to bond calculation success 🗺️✍️ #edusky #iteachchem edu.rsc.org/ideas/buildi...

Give your 14–16 learners a clear, real‑world way to understand hydrogen bonding and why water behaves so unusually from @ninanotman.bsky.social. Download the summary slide with questions and story handout 💧

Transition to secondary science can be tricky for learners, often involving a dip in engagement and attainment. But what exactly are the core barriers slowing success, and how can teachers and leadership teams work together to combat these? ⬇️🧪 #edusky #iteachchem edu.rsc.org/feature/what...

How does cognitive load affect learning, and how should that impact your teaching sequence? Learn how to slow down discovery to speed up students' chemistry learning with education professor Colin McGill ⏱️👇️ #edusky #iteachchem edu.rsc.org/endpoint/why...
