CLUE is a new NSF supported approach to general chemistry based on three learning progressions (structure, properties and energy). The curriculum was developed by answering five questions: 1. What do we want students to know? 2. In what order should they learn it? 3. What do students bring with them? 4. What materials are most appropriate for learning different concepts and skills? 5. How will we measure what students have learned? Participants in the workshop will answer these questions for their own institutional settings and their own students. In addition they will have the opportunity to work with the materials developed for the CLUE curriculum, including online beSocratic activities. Participants will also be provided with CLUE materials, including an electronic version of the text and student activities.
