How Do Other Countries Teach Chemistry?
Description
Have you ever wondered if there is another or better way to teach chemistry? Does everyone start school in August?
Stacy explains how science is structured in Australia and in Scotland. For example, there are 2 week breaks every 10 weeks in Australia, which Stacy explains helps with burnout. Australia also starts school in January.
Scotland also gets more breaks than the United States.
Stacy talks about the differences in teaching chemistry between the two countries. In Scotland, they start off talking more about the atom and periodic table.
