Reihe: ACS Symposium Series

Our science and our society are in the midst of a digital revolution that is changing the way that we use information, communicate and share information with others, and participate in social groups to address problems. How will education in general and chemical education in particular respond to these dramatic changes? Early adopters are exploring a broad range of possibilities. This book is the first volume of a series of books which will showcase the current state
of the art based upon material presented in symposia at ACS national meetings, BCCEs, Online ConfChem conferences and other venue. It will be of interest to anyone who wants to enhance learning and involve students with the panoply of evolving information and communication tools that are available
for scientific research and education.
