| Getting started doing POGIL presents some challenges for the teacher and the student. Besides the obvious need to master an entirely new style of instruction (and learning) there are several pitfalls that may not be anticipated. Implementation of guided inquiry in a physical chemistry classroom offers some discipline-specific challenges and opportunities. It also provides the teacher with a particularly valuable view of the chemistry curriculum as a whole and the chemistry student in particular. In this presentation I will describe my experiences from the very beginning through an entire first semester. Then I will extend this to the first three months of the second semester of pchem taught to essentially the same students. The effect of changes adopted in the second semester will be detailed. |
