New "Publication"

December 2023

 

T- CEL member Christian Dictus-Christoph was invited to present our recent project on gamification on the podcast "NICHT im Fachraum essen" - MINT TOWN!

This podcast from the Gesellschaft für Didaktik der Chemie und Physik (GDCP) presents work by and for young scientists, as well as insights into other important topics for a young career in research like publications and founding.  A MUST for all PhD students who want to get an overview and valuable tips for their doctoral thesis and beyond.

 


NEW T-CEL Workshop

November 2023

 

We are pleased to announce a new workshop on the use of AI tools in scientific writing:

 Technological progress and, in particular, the latest developments in the field of artificial intelligence (AI) are influencing science and scientific work. In this workshop, we would like to discuss the possibilities and limits of AI in the context of scientific work and explore them ourselves using examples. Using selected tools, we will work together to determine whether and how AI tools can be effectively and responsibly integrated into scientific work and scientific writing.

The workshop is aimed at interested science students and will take place in person. Please register by email to Prof. Tiemann by 13. 12.

 

Speaker: Prof. Dr. Ines Sonnesschein

Date: 18.12  

Time: 10:30 to 15:00

Location: Zum Großen Windkanal 6 D-12489 Berlin

 

 

 


RESearch


Prof. Dr. Rüdiger Tiemann

Head of the Chemistry Education Lab

The research program of the Tiemann Chemistry Education Lab has a strong commitment to knowledge acquisition by problem solving. In quantitative studies with technology based tools the focus is on describing, assessing and supporting  the fundamental mechanisms behind this process.  

 

 

"We only think when we are confronted with problems."

(John Dewey)

 

 

Combined with the use of experiments and the use of mental models to understand  core concepts of Chemistry, the research program empowers the Tiemann Chemistry Education Lab,   theory-driven and empirically, to investigate students' thinking individually or in classrooms. Alumni group members serve as Professors, for Science Outreach Organizations or as Chemistry Teachers.


ACADEMICS



Bachelor

The Chemistry Education Lab at Humboldt-University serves more than 100 students at K-12 (Sekundarstufe) and primary level (Primarstufe) each year through a diverse portfolio of theoretical background knowledge and first practical learning experiences.
