Abstract. David Gosser (City College of New York) and Pratibha Varma-Nelson (St. Xavier University, Chicago) presented the Workshop Chemistry initiative, "a coalition of faculty, students, and learning specialists organized around a peer-led, team-learning model of teaching chemistry." Through presentations and small group discussions with undergraduates, participants learned about this program, how it has been implemented at two different schools, and how it might fit into their own curriculum.
