SUMMARY:Teaching Forensic Chemistry from a Mastery Perspective (AACT Webinar)
DESCRIPTION:Forensic chemistry has gained a lot of traction over the past years. Students are more engaged in this discipline when instructors use inquiry-based learning and objective-mastery assessments. In this webinar\, we will discuss how a new forensic chemistry class and laboratory course was implemented and how effective it has been to use this model to teach chemical principles. \nIf you are looking to incorporate more forensics-based teaching into your classroom\, take a look at our Forensics Unit Plan. \nPresenters: Carlos Olivo\, Associate Chemistry Professor\, Colorado State University\nDate: Wednesday\, March 11th\, 2026\, at 7:00 PM Eastern time

SUMMARY:Using spreadsheets to explore and make sense of data (AACT Webinar)
DESCRIPTION:College professors are reporting that students are coming to college with a lack of spreadsheet skills and knowledge. In this webinar\, participants will gain techniques in using spreadsheets to take sets of data (whether created in class or found from external sources) and distill results from them. Skills include graphing\, performing calculations\, filtering data\, conditional formatting\, and more. \nSpeaker: Sean Regan\, College Prep Chemistry Teacher \nSean Regan graduated from the University of Pittsburgh with a bachelor’s degree in Chemistry and a master’s degree in Teaching. Sean is currently in his 10th year at Framingham High School in Framingham\, MA after having taught four years at Brashear High School in Pittsburgh\, PA. His passion in teaching is seeing kids understand chemistry through his goofy antics\, approachable demeanor\, and personally-built spreadsheet lessons. Sean also has a love of presenting his spreadsheet work to other teachers and seeing these ideas used in schools inside and outside of Massachusetts.
