#TheTeachingLab
After 6 weeks in #theteachinglab our year 1 organic chemistry lab course has now finished for another year. Mostly run the same as pre-covid but with some covid-prompted tweaks, which I'm sure will be the case for many of us. But no more labs until October for me!
I know the irony of this post. I said something was hard in #theteachinglab. Student joked "that's what she said". Casual chat about workplace professionalism ensued. In their defence they said I left myself wide open to it. I like banter - so this was a challenging moment 🤦🤷
Back to almost normal running of my year one course in the #theteachinglab (still with masks). 2 weeks in, lots of interactions, some students pointing out errors in lab manual ("determine the solvent"... -> then me naming the solvent later 🤦) and just a nice atmosphere overall
I may be behind the times but I was impressed with the steady cam attachment for an iPhone. Our summer students are updating our synthetic pre-lab repository #theteachinglab
About 8 weeks ago I was quite giddy for my first day back in #theteachinglab. After coordinating Y1/Y2 labs, with 15 days in the lab myself, I would say it was intense and enjoyable. And I saw a ruler imprint on a TLC plate for the first time... And I've seen a lot of TLCs!
Fluting filter paper is somewhat therapeutic #theteachinglab
So after only 3 Grignard fails across 135 students, my 2nd year labs have finished in-class sessions. They've spanned 24 days in the last 6 weeks. And it's the last time I coordinate this course. One day gap and now 10 days of Y1 labs. Intense sums it up #theteachinglab
We're not baking here. But our fabulous @LivUniCTL technicians have put these together to restrict movement around the lab. Kits of numbered equipment ready for oven drying. This is in prep for the Grignard onslaught from Monday... Only 100 of them next week. #theteachinglab
Two weeks back and I've now spoken to all but two Y2 students in #theteachinglab, which was great (was still giddy). Final lecture capture recorded today. Tomorrow my Y1 lab starts so I finally get to meet some Y1 students! Two lab courses running at the same time though 🤦
Day 1 back in the lab with my lovely colleagues and students... I'm a little giddy. I'm sure the novelty will wear off by lunch. #theteachinglab
Annual leave time after finishing pre-Easter marking. Time to relax before the eagerly anticipated date of the 12th April. Excited & apprehensive to be with people around benches with alcohols bubbling away in glassware... My year 2 synthetic lab is starting 😉 #theteachinglab
"Experiment P6 was great to talk about in {IP/YII} interviews". It's like we hoped the Y2 group-based, research-connected (who loves MOFs?), inquiry-based mini-project offers students something to talk about. #theteachinglab #coursefeedback
An interesting question today from a Y1 student (who I hope was joking🙄). What would we do in an exam if they had a tattoo with lots of equations on? Interesting way to work the system, but they were disappointed I'd make them blue plaster it, cooking style #theteachinglab
Week 2 with the first years and a gem... "She's not like a demonstator, but more like a drill sergeant". The demonstrator in question was rather pleased by this. #theteachinglab
It's Christmas, innit? #theteachinglab
Student: "James, come quick, the NMR is broken" Me: "What happened?" Student: "As soon as I hit submit the machine took my sample" Me: "This can happen when you're the 1st in the academic year to run one" I think it was the same student who did the floss last time #theteachinglab
Two days into term. A student was quite happily doing The Floss in #theteachinglab. Quite amusing to see in a lab coat. Not sure why.
