Resource | Synthesis and Characterization of Self-Assembled Liquid Crystals: p-Alokxybenzoic Acids
Thermotropic liquid crystal phases are ordered fluids found, for some molecules, at intermediate temperatures between the crystal and liquid states. Although technologically important, these materials typically receive little attention in the undergraduate curriculum. Here, we describe a laboratory activity for introductory organic chemistry students on the synthesis and characterization of the…

Resource | Supporting Children's Problem Solving
“Help! I’m stuck!” How many times have you heard a student make a similar plea? What do you consider when deciding how to respond? What reasoning is most productive? As part of a large research proj¬ect, we explored these questions with 131 prospective and practicing teach¬ers and found patterns in their reasoning. Consider how teachers and professional developers can use these patterns to better…

Resource | Dissemination Toolkit: Social Media Outreach
Just Getting Started? First, ask yourself if social media is right for your project. To use social media effectively, you need to build a group of followers, and the best way to build a following is by posting relevant information regularly. As an exercise, generate a list of 14 resources that would be appropriate to post. See how long that took. If you had trouble coming up with ideas, then…

Resource | Re-mythologizing mathematics through attention to classroom positioning
With our conceptualization of Harré and van Langenhove’s (1999) positioning theory, we draw attention to immanent experience and read transcendent discursive practices through the moment of interaction. We use a series of spatial images as metaphors to analyze the way positioning is conceptualized in current mathematics education literature and the way it may be alternatively conceptualized. This…
