@bopinion Not true. Masks and gloves are only essential for staff, not for customers. Goodness me, this is really poor research.

I love this resource.
A great introduction to a key #microbiology technique, especially for 1st year university students.

Resource spotlight! Streak Plate Technique

In this resource, students explore streak plating bacteria by following a virtual lab protocol, considering factors such as optimal streak technique and aseptic working

It’s not surprising that chemistry undergraduates can get overwhelmed by practical laboratories, but when this impacts on how well laboratory learning outcomes are embedded, what is the best approach?

#Firstdayofschool done! I handed out introduction forms for all my students to fill. Am learning so much about them from their responses especially from the last question. Would recommend for every new class #studentsupport #STEMeducation #teacherlife

We are excited to be visiting Manchester at the end of the month (these things come round so fast!) for the
@AdvanceHE_STEM #STEMConf20 with talks, interactive sessions, posters and much more.

Stan and Emily will see you there!

Happy new year everyone! Hope you had a lovely break, and rested well if possible.

The Learning Science office is back open, and we're already busy working on interactive resources, #SmartWorksheets and more - for you and your students!

To the reasonably high profile Aussie who made a hugely derogatory comment to me at ACC 2019 on finding out that I was from NZ, I hope you read this and recognize that these people are a million times the man you'll ever be.

Practicals are undeniably intensive to run, so we understand you want to maximise value.

Emily and Bill from Learning Science celebrate ideas, innovations and examples of good practice in this article for @FEBSnews

@StephenRGW sharing some exciting changes to TAs in first year chemistry laboratories @SydneyChemistry. Glad to see TAs prefer building relationships with students over experiment familiarity!

Importance of demonstrator-student relationships in the chemistry teaching lab @StephenRGW #RACIChemEd19

[Gwen Lawrie @glawrie]

It's officially 'official'! 😃Really happy to share that I will be a full Professor from Jan 1 ... I am still in the 'is this real?' phase!

Massively appreciate the encouragement/support of my incredible friends and mentors especially the CER community - sending thank you hugs!

@iainthistle @LearnSciHQ Would have been fun. No worries.
Me and my LearnSci christmas mug enjoyed some eggnog instead.

P.s I hate eggnog, but it sounds festive 🙂🎄

Practising the steps of complex processes before going through the lab doors can help students get more involved in their learning. https://t.co/8fIX1aM89Z
