We recognize that instructors benefit and thrive from sharing ideas with each other. The Communities of Practice (CoP) were created to build cohorts that meet during the year to discuss topics of interest. The goal is to build relations across the community, so every instructor feels supported. 

This spring, we have three continuing discussion groups: Math Practices, Pedagogy in Physical Chemistry, and New Faculty CoP. Please read below for a description and click on the CoP of interest to sign up!

We support all community members who would like to start a CoP for discussion. If you would like to propose a new CoP, simply complete the survey below. 

There have been many community members asking for a CoP to examine one-semester physical chemistry courses. From our initial fall survey, there is much interest in understanding better the content of a one-semester physical chemistry course and the impacts that a one-semester physical chemistry course has on the department curriculum. From the feedback, we also learned that a summer working group may be the most appropriate. If you may be interested in participating in a summer working group, please complete the survey below.
