Working groups

Working groups in the Division of chemical education

The working groups deal with current problems in chemistry lessons and the curricula and develop didactically and technically well-founded perspectives. Current issues are discussed and educational policy activities are stimulated and coordinated. The appropriate use of new media is encouraged, and the development of new experiments and experimental concepts is supported.

Experimental class

The aim of this working group is to promote and strengthen experimental teaching.
At the founding meeting, suggestions were made on the following main areas of work:

Significance and significance of experimental teaching in chemistry for the successful transfer of competencies (specialist knowledge - acquisition of knowledge - communication - assessment).
Contribution of problem-oriented and experimental chemistry lessons to the development of general, rational judgment.
Presentation of different approaches in university studies for teaching staff to impart experimentation skills / possibilities for optimization and harmonization.
Creation of a catalog for assessing potential hazards when carrying out school experiments.
