Event Description

“Dear colleagues,

We are happy to welcome you to the ECRICE 2024, the 16 European Conference on Research in Chemical Education, to be held at NOVA School of Science and Technology, Campus da Caparica, Lisbon, September 5-7, 2024.

 

This conference on research in chemical education, recognised by EuChemS, is an important event to disseminate new research and developments. It is important to know how learners acquire knowledge, how to facilitate this acquisition and trigger it. It is relevant to examine different learning environments, new educational tools, and new ways in which neuroeducation, technology and artificial intelligence, can be integrated into chemical education, and promote the engagement of students in the learning process. But nowadays this is not enough. It is necessary to do this through the lens of sustainability, having in mind the 17 SDGs. Therefore, ECRICE 24’s theme is “Chemical Education for Sustainable Development: Empowering Education Communities”

 

The ECRICE24 Committees of this International conference invite all chemistry education researchers and teachers to come to the conference and challenge them to showcase presentations, submit abstracts, and present work, regarding new developments in Chemical Education, through the lens of sustainable goals, and participate in the ECRICE 2024 meeting.

 

We are looking forward to welcoming you in Lisbon.

 

Enjoy the conference!

 

Sincerely,

 

Isabel Ribau, Conference Chair

A. Jorge Parola, Secretary General of the Portuguese Chemical Society

Juaquim Luís Faria, President of the Portuguese Chemical Society"

Hanover Research

Event Description

In this webinar, Hanover Research will present our newly released asset, "Top Career Skills for New Grads in 2024," as well as proven best practices in higher education in order to think strategically about aligning to workforce needs. Additionally, during this webinar, higher education leaders highly skilled in working with workforce alignment strategies will present on their own institution’s goals and plans; and provide insight into how other institutions are thinking about the topic. Federal, state, and provincial governments around the world are increasingly demanding that colleges and universities demonstrate workforce outcomes from their students. Meanwhile, employers often report a misalignment between the skills needed in their employees and what graduates possess. To promote the success of graduates, many institutions are eager to improve their workforce alignment strategies. You won’t want to miss this all of the good stuff that will be presented during this webinar. 

Speakers: 

  • Dr. JoAnn Lighty - Dean of the College of Engineering, Boise State University (ID)
  • Dr. Lewatis McNeal - Vice Provost for Regional Higher Education and Partnerships, Ohio University (OH)
  • Dr. Michael Rodgers - Higher Education Senior Research Advisor, Hanover Research
