SLiThErs - Supporting Learning with Interactive Teaching: a Hosted, Engaging Roundtable
Chip Nataro / Lafayette College
Thu, 12/17/2020 - 14:18
A collection of all of the IONiC VIPEr SLiThErs (Supporting Learning with Interactive Teaching: a Hosted, Engaging Roundtable). These events are short presentations on a topic followed by a period of discussion between the presenter and live participants. Each of these events is recorded and posted to the IONiC VIPEr YouTube Channel.
SLiThEr #59: Inclusive leadership - Your role in creating cultures of belonging
Description
Marilyn Mackiewicz (Oregon State University) is the 2020 awardee of the Stanley C. Israel Regional Award for Advancing Diversity in the Chemical Sciences from the ACS. Her unique story and experiences are presented, along with how faculty can make their spaces and themselves more welcoming.
Using MOF and zeolite nanoparticles to produce microporous water (Mason)
Hilary Eppley / DePauw University
Wed, 03/13/2024 - 13:01
Description
In fall 2023, Jarad Mason from Harvard University was awarded the ACS Award in Pure Chemistry for his contributions to the fields of phase-change materials, microporous materials, and materials chemistry. In this literature discussion, students will examine his recent paper “Microporous water with high gas solubilities," Nature 2022, 608, 712-718 which is related to that work.
New Members of the Class of [Fe(CN)x(CO)y] Compounds (Koch)
Description
This LO was written by the IONiC Leadership Council to celebrate Steve Koch as the recipient of the 2024 ACS Award for Distinguished Service in Advancement of Inorganic Chemistry. Steve has been a major supporter of the IONiC community since its inception. This LO is based on the article New Members of the Class of [Fe(CN)x(CO)y] Compounds. published in Inorganic Chemistry (DOI: 10.1021/ic015604y).
Incorporating hard-soft acid-base theory to create transition-metal and oxidation-state specific biological probes (Chang)
Description
This literature discussion was created on invitation as part of a broad collection of learning objects celebrating Spring 2024 ACS award winners conducting research in Inorganic Chemistry. This learning object is in celebration of Prof. Christopher J.
SLiThEr #58: Embracing the maker culture in chemistry research and instruction
Description
BoB LeSuer (Associate Professor at SUNY - Brockport and President of IBiB) discusses using a maker space for teaching chemistry. Topics include: digital fabrication of pedagogical materials (models and periodic tables); instrumentation (potentiostat and liquid dispenser); and upcycling plastics into functional materials. Of special interest to this group will be work BoB has done on making the ICE solid state model kits available to anyone!
Pre-Equilibria Reaction Mechanism as a Strategy to Enhance Rate and Lower Overpotential in Electrocatalysis (Berben)
Description
This literature Discussion LO was created for the 2024 ACS Inorganic Chemistry Award Winners Collection. Professor Louise A.
Lewis Base Stabilized Dichlorosilylene (Roesky)
Description
This literature discussion LO was created for the ACS National Award Winners 2024 collection. Dr. Herbert Roesky was the recipient of the 2024 Frederic Stanley Kipping Award in Silicon Chemistry. This LO is based on the article "Lewis Base Stabilized Dichlorosilylene" published in Angewandte Chemie 2009, 121, 5793-5796.
SLiThEr #57: What to do when your published results are questioned?
Description
This was the 57th SLiThEr, presented by Dr. George Stanley, retired professor from LSU. It was a very interesting story and would be a valuable lesson to students about proper characterization and working with challenging and paramagnetic systems.
