2The value of teaching in learning
“Preparation to teach the contents of a text versus to understand it personally may influence the mental representations that are created from text.”

2The value of teaching in learning
If you are mentally aware of the future need to explain a concept to someone else, then you will learn the concept better than if you are only learning it for yourself.

In a recent journal article, Schwink and Knochel reported the following transformation involving an interesting molecule where an iron atom is sandwiched between two rings (Schwink, L.; Knochel, P. Tetrahedron Lett. 1996, 37, 25-28.). Provide a description of the bonding changes taking place in this reaction.

A. Amphidindolide H3 is a newcyctotoxic compound isolatedfrom the marinedinoflagellateAmphidinium .(JOC,2002, 67, 6585).
(a) Circle the centers towhich R or S can beassigned, and then label them as one or theother (use an arrow pointing to the circledcenter to indicate). Youshould also circle the doublebonds to which E or Z canbe assigned, and label themalso. A few of the carbons are numberedbecause they will be referred to in the next question.
(b) In the structure drawn above, carbons 16-19 are indicated with numerals. The conformation of the carbon-18/carbon-19 bond was also reported by these authors. These are the features of that conformational study:

(i) the "OH" group at carbon-18 is gauche to the "C=O" group attached to carbon-19. The C=O group may be abbreviated as "COR".(ii) the carbon chain that begins at carbon-17 is anti to the "C=O" group at carbon-19. The carbon chain that begins at carbon-17 may be abbreviated as "R".
Given these data, draw a Newman projection for the groups around the carbon-18 to carbon-19 bond as viewed from carbon-18 as the front atom and carbon-19 as the back atom.
B. (a) Provide a structural drawing for 1S, 2S-1,2-dibromo-1-methylcyclopentane (Compound Q).
(b) How many optically active diastereomers does Compound Q have?
(e) If the 1R,2S isomer has an specific rotation of -38Þ and the 1R,2R-isomer has an specific rotation of +24Þ, what is the specific rotation of Compound Q?
(f) How many meso stereoisomers are there for the connectivity represented by Compound Q?

(1) 6 groups of 15-18 get a different article(2) each group becomes 5-6 subgroups of 3(3) each subgroup of 3 “owns” a step in sequence
- represent mechanism (static & animate)- correlate NMR spectra with structure- analyze experimental procedure
(4) make pedagogical choices to present ideas- in oral presentations- in writing- on web
Assessment of Student Learning
I. Exams, Papers, etc. (Product, no Path)
II. Periodic sampling (Product & Path)
III. Peer-based editing (Guided reflection;“editors”)
IV. Performance-based (Expert &/ Control)
V. Large-scale survey (Change & Correlation)
VI. Interview &/ Observe (Multiple sources)

Performance-based Assessment:The counter-intuitive event
Goal: to compare the skills of students who engage in weekly discussions where "student answers" are the beginning, not the end, of an academic conversation.
Method: devise a task where it is relatively certain that a reasonable prediction based on familiar information will be made, and then present the experimental information that demonstrates the prediction is backwards (or otherwise incomplete; interview 2 student groups and an "expert" group, code and compare).

“expert” solution(fac & grad who do not know the facts)
SSG students grouped 80% of the time with those like expert (this one: 100%).
A/B+ non-SSG grouped10% of the time withthose like expert(this one: 0%)
Next generation?
• Problem: expansion of multimedia component to larger group of less skilled students
• Solutions: dedicated software & environment– > Studio instructional environment– > ChemSense (www.ChemSense.org)
• SRI collaboration (R. Kozma, E. Coleman, P. Schank)• integration into a new high school text project

In Chemistry, we understand better than nearly every other discipline how to create teams of undergraduate, graduate, and post-doctoral students in order to advance research goals. This is our model of professional development...
…and it begins with the design of undergraduate courses,where the potential to carry out research is first identified.
The same model of professional development can advance how teaching and learning are done.

Or, “how can faculty members add this sort of work to their alreadyoverfilled list of responsibilities?”
• coursework that identifies potential
• early entry into design, implementation, documentation, & assessment
• increased independence• intensive study
- coursework- seminars- projects- collaboration
• functional independence• professional readiness
• transferability
• faculty lines
