Spring Cleaning Your Chem Class? One Practical Change to Support Student Learning Next Spring, with Dr. Elaine Bernal

Dr. Bernal built the session around three challenges: chemistry that feels disconnected from everyday life, the habit of memorizing procedures instead of applying ideas, and the uncertainty of not knowing where to start. Using examples from their own CHEM 100 course, Dr. Bernal walked through how students investigate childhood lead exposure with real CDC data, work through stoichiometry with visuals and built-in simulations, and turn to DOT when they get stuck. Instructors brought their own classroom struggles into the conversation, from students who can’t explain their reasoning to assigned reading that goes untouched before class. The session closed on where one change might fit in a spring course, whether before a hard topic, after an exam, or inside an existing course.

Why Join This Community?

We recognize the unique role faculty play in shaping student success. Students bring incredible potential and diverse perspectives that, when supported with tools like REAL CHEM, translate into exceptional outcomes in chemistry and STEM. This series creates space to share those successes and expand on what’s working across higher education and especially at minority-serving institutions.

Especially valuable for faculty, teaching their diverse population of students:

Learn how REAL CHEM’s visual learning approach and interactive simulations are helping faculty at minority-serving institutions create more engaging chemistry experiences that resonate with diverse learning styles and enhance student comprehension through powerful imagery and molecular
