Chemistry (12) Faculty in the Colleges of Science and Education have been working collaboratively for the past three years in addressing problems of student performance and retention in first semester chemistry. During this period, faculty recognized the need to examine their own practice including design of course curriculum, the quality of the problem-solving, in-class activities for students, and the alignment of course components and the importance of addressing problems of achievement and retention from multiple solution paths. The objectives being addressed in the current project include: (1) revision of the course curriculum and BONDing (Building Opportunities for Networking and Discussion) sessions through adaptation/adoption of aspects of the NSF Chemistry Initiatives and the integration of technology-based instructional tools and models, (2) professional development of faculty in order to facilitate implementation of these reforms, (3) continually building a professional learning community. The objectives are being accomplished through an action plan in which a cross-disciplinary faculty team simultaneously addresses curriculum revision, meaningful learning, and innovative instructional approaches. Curriculum reform efforts, including use of technology, are well-established methods to improve the learning of under-prepared and/or diverse student populations. Mechanisms for extensive collaborations have been established with community colleges in the area through the Region V Area Center for Educational Enhancement.

化学（12）在过去三年里，科学和教育学院的教师一直在合作解决学生在第一学期化学中的表现和保留问题。在此期间，教师认识到有必要检查自己的做法，包括课程的设计，解决问题的质量，学生的课堂活动，以及课程组成部分的对齐和解决问题的重要性的成就和保留从多个解决方案路径。目前项目的目标包括：（1）课程设置和BONDING的修订（建立网络和讨论的机会）会议，通过适应/采用国家科学基金会化学倡议的各个方面和整合基于技术的教学工具和模型，（2）教师的专业发展，以促进这些改革的实施，（3）持续建设专业学习共同体。这些目标正在通过一项行动计划来实现，其中一个跨学科的教师团队同时解决课程修订，有意义的学习和创新的教学方法。课程改革努力，包括使用技术，是改善准备不足和/或多样化学生群体学习的既定方法。通过第五区地区教育促进中心，与该地区的社区学院建立了广泛合作机制。
