Carbon chemistry

The Royal Society of Chemistry’s online CPD for teachers series covers a number of useful and broad-ranging subjects. The latest, Carbon Chemistry, is an excellent resource for all those who teach organic chemistry, from the non-specialist through to the experienced practitioner.

The course breaks down a very large subject into 13 bite-size topics. They cover everything from simple hydrocarbons through to reactions and synthesis. Each topic is broken down further, by first introducing teachers to the core ideas, then exploring and developing understanding.
