Science teaching journal club and relating research to practice

A new virtual network of science teachers, organised by two London-based science teachers and hosted on Twitter was launched recently. A challenge facing teachers is how to access and apply the latest research findings to their own teaching, as time to participate in part-time courses and meet other teachers is limited.

Alom Shaha and Alby Reid have found a way via social media to help teachers achieve this through the Science Journal Teaching Club.

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