Chemistry for the Public: Our Challenge
Harpp, David N.; Fenster, A. E.; Schwarcz, J. A.
Journal of Chemical Education, v88 n6 p739-743 Jun 2011
This article summarizes our experience at McGill University in developing a strong connection not only with a large number of students but also with the general public. This has led to the establishment of a cooperative team to deliver useful information about chemistry and science broadly via the radio, television, the Internet, lectures, articles, and courses. (Contains 4 tables.)
