The three research projects currently ongoing are:

Developing assessment measures to determine the impact of curriculum transformations.
Investigating the ways in which students use a chemical structure (i.e. Lewis structure) to predict a compound's macroscopic properties (i.e. reactivity and acidity/basicity).
Exploring the connections students make between their chemistry, biology, and physics courses.
