Spring 2002 AP Chemistry and Biology Conference April 6th, 2002 8:30AM-12:30PM -SUNY Purchase Teaching Center Natural Science Building
AP Chemistry Program Methods in Teaching the Predicting Reaction Unit presented by Dr. Robert Gamper and Mark Langella Local High School AP Instructors and Official AP Consultants ( Main Lecture Hall)
This program will be focused on the techniques and demonstrations used to teach the predicting reactions unit in the Advanced Placement Chemistry Curriculum. This program will cover the most common reactions questioned on AP Chemistry exams and the many ways they can be demonstrated in class. The presenters have over thirty years of experience teaching AP chemistry and will show how they use flashy demonstrations to get the point across. Participants will receive note outlines and laboratory experiments appropriate for use in teaching this topic at the AP level. Participants are asked to share their demonstration ideas on the varied reactions they demonstrate in class.
AP Biology Program Methods of Teaching Photosynthesis Presented by Alan Gardner AP Biology Instructor, Harrison High School (Room 1059)
The light and dark reactions of C3 photosynthesis, as well as photorespiration, C4 photosynthesis, and the CAM pathway will be the foci of discussion. Details of the electron transport chain in the thylakoid membrane as well as the reactions of the Calvin Cycle will be included. Experiments involving DPIP and other methods of qualitatively and quantitatively detecting photosynthesis will be included. Participants will receive note outlines and laboratory experiments appropriate for use in teaching this topic at the AP level. Location: -SUNY Purchase, Teaching Center, Natural Science Building Sponsored by PWISTA and The Teacher Center at Purchase College Date : Saturday, April 6th , 2002 Time: 8:30am-12:30 pm Cost: $ 50.00 per person ( includes Refreshments)
