Molecular Simulation

Catalog description

Advanced theoretical foundation and techniques for molecular dynamics and Monte Carlo simulation of condensed phases, including interaction models, dynamical foundations, equilibrium properties, biological systems, and transport coefficients. 7610 Learning Theories in Chemical Education Research G 1½ This course provides opportunities for students to understand the nature of a theoretical framework and how/why it is used for chemistry education research. Throughout the course, students will discuss, reflect, expand upon, and make sense of the processes in which chemistry is taught and learned. 7620 Towards a More Inclusive Higher-Education G 1½ Environment: Post Qualitative and Quantitative Methods This course introduces students to the interdisciplinary field of narrative inquiry and QuantCrit methods, aiming to bridge the gap between qualitative narratives and quantitative analysis in chemistry education. 7630 Problem-Posing Model of Chemistry Education G 1½ The goal of this course is to understand the theoretical underpinnings and practical applications of the problem-posing model of education. Students will make interconnections with current socio-scientific issues pertaining to the nature of science and chemistry education research and will discuss, reflect, expand upon, and make sense of the processes by which chemistry is taught and learned. 7640 Methods and Methodologies in chemistry education G 1½ research and DBER This course provides opportunities for students to…
