Introduction

If you are currently teaching chemistry for Junior Certificate Science but hold a specialism in a different subject, then the Chemistry for Non-specialists course is for you.This is a high quality training programme designed by the Å·ÃÀAV and adapted for the Irish curriculum. The aim is to provide teachers with confidence, flair and enthusiasm for teaching chemistry and there is an emphasis on gaining hands-on experience with the use of relevant and interesting experiments and demonstrations to illustrate key ideas and phenomena. The course also identifies the topics that challenge students' conceptual understanding of chemistry and provides you with strategies to tackle them. Participants will receive resources to assist them with their chemistry teaching including a course book that provides guidelines on over 80 experiments.
