Activation Energy

Let’s be honest: chemistry is often taught the wrong way round. Students learn the solution before they ever understand the problem. 

That's why I'm starting something new: Activation Energy, a short newsletter on chemistry and how we teach it: curated links, brief reflections, and a look at where chemistry meets real life. If you find it interesting, you can susbcribe here. Here are some selected articles:

• What is Chemistry Actually for?

• Why it's so hard to feel like ourselves again after the holidays

• Entropy: Why Tidying Up Never Really Sticks

• Where did all of our frustation go? 

• The colour no one was looking for

• Lo que nos mantiene unidos no siempre se ve

• Los catalizadores que nunca conoceré
