| Collection Name: | CSERD: Computational Science Education Reference Desk
|
|---|
| Collection Description: | The Computational Science Education Reference Desk (CSERD) features resources to help students learn about computational science and to help teachers incorporate it into the classroom. Computational science involves the appropriate use of a computational architecture or computing environment (a computer, calculator, abacus, dice, or the like) to apply some algorithm, or mathematical method, to solve some scientific application, or problem. This combination of application, algorithm, and architecture results in a model that can be used as a scientific tool. The Resources section of the CSERD site provides a permanent collection of materials developed especially for CSERD, including models (pieces of scientific software), activities (lessons or lesson plans that use models), tutorials (short courses designed to teach a specific topic), applications, algorithms, architectures, and several other categories. The Resources form part of a larger catalogue of computational science items gathered by CSERD from around the internet. The catalogue can be searched or browsed by subject, keyword, education level, audience, and resource type. The record for each item includes a link to the resource, title, brief description, education level, and other information. |

Recent News In July , we attended the 2008 BCCE at Indiana University in Bloomington, Indiana. While there, we presented talks on equilibrium and our collaborative work in interdisciplinary virtual labs. We also had a booth in the exhibit hall. In June 2008 , we presented a talk, "Digital Libraries to Support Problem Solving and Conceptual Learning in Introductory Chemistry" at the Gordon Research Conference on Physics Education Research and Practice at Bryant University in Smithfield, RI. In November 2007 we attended the 7th NSDL Annual Meeting in Arlington, Virginia. At the meeting, we presented our collaborative work with groups at MIT and Kent State, " Interdisciplinary Virtual Labs for Undergraduate Education in the NSDL MatDL. " In August 2007 , we presented a talk entitled, " Making the implicit explicit in the teaching of chemical equilibrium " at the fall ACS National Meeting in Boston. We also exhibited at the ChemED 2007 Conference in Denton, TX. more.. Contact Us Last Updated: Wednesday, August 6th, 2008 @ 11:13:10 am
