Cottrell Scholars Collaborative New Faculty Workshop
The CSC, in partnership with RCSA and the American Chemical Society, is implementing a New Faculty Workshop program to improve the penetration of research-validated pedagogies in chemistry departments around the country. By introducing new faculty to the scholarship behind scientific teaching before they enter the classroom, members of the CSC believe that we can help faculty develop great habits for effective teaching and student learning, and foster a new generation of more effective teacher-scholars.
