Workshop to Revise 'Teaching Chemistry to Students with Disabilities'

化学学部将支持在亚利桑那州立大学举行的为期三天的研讨会，以更新和修订《残疾学生化学教学》手册。修订后的手册将由美国化学会出版，并由美国化学会和美国科学促进会分发。修订后的手册将包括对k-12、有视觉、听觉、运动和学习障碍的本科生和研究生参与化学教学项目的当前和最佳实践的概述。该手册将涵盖安全、实验室改造、讲座和测试策略、在教学中使用计算机、教学材料和规章制度，如《美国残疾人法案》。研讨会的参与者将从那些在k-12到大学阶段的残疾学生以及研究生和本科生中教授化学的知名人士中挑选。

The Chemistry Division will support a three day workshop, to be held at Arizona State University, to update and revise the manual "Teaching Chemistry to Students with Disabilities." The American Chemical Society will publish the revised manual and it will be distributed by the ACS and the American Association for the Advancement of Science. The revised manual will consist of an overview of current and best practices for participation of k-12, undergraduate and graduate students with visual, hearing, motor and learning disabilities in instructional programs in chemistry. The manual will cover safety, laboratory modifications, lecture and testing strategies, use of computers in instruction, instructional materials and rules and regulations such as the Americans with Disabilities Act. Workshop participants will be drawn from those with established reputations in teaching chemistry to students with disabilities at the k-12 through university levels as well as graduate and undergraduate students.
