Alumna Sally Hunnicutt - Holding a Worlshop on POGIL Approach

Sally Hunnicutt, MS Chemistry ’86, held a chemistry faculty workshop for 2 days (Sat and Sun), this summer. Sally was one of the 3 facilitators with 22 faculty participants at the workshop. The workshop was to train instructors on how to modify their physical chemistry laboratory courses to use the POGIL approach. The POGIL-PCL community has a set of experiments developed using the POGIL approach (a constructivist group-oriented teaching method); these experiments emphasize modeling macroscopic and microscopic phenomena and have students design and refine experiments to help them learn physical chemistry principles.
