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
