Our speaker this summer will be Nicolai Lehnert, from the University of Michigan - Ann Arbor. Professor Lehnert's work bridges the fields of bioinorganic, bioorganometallic and biomimetic chemistry. This workshop will concentrate on how to use results from his research to teach structure and bonding using the primary literature. Participants will learn to design and assess student centered materials; concrete outcomes of the workshop include new open-access Learning Materials for the Inorganic classroom.
This workshop will be held in Dearborn, MI, from June 20-23, 2018.
