The Association for Science Education held its inaugural Café ASE discussion

The Association for Science Education (ASE) held its inaugural Café ASE discussion event in London on 10 February. Described on the night as 'science education meeting science communication', this was the first in a series of events, which are to be held on the second Thursday of every month.

Café ASE is based on the popular Café Scientifique model and so in February, 40 people from across the science education community gathered at the Waterstones bookshop in Gower Street to hear a short talk by Professor Paul Black, emeritus professor of science education at King's College London.

Thanks for using Education in Chemistry. You can view one Education in Chemistry article per month as a visitor.
