Idea for the Course
• NSF Workshop June 2009 (1 week), Millersville University
“Chemistry in Art”• Both attended• Focus on art history and chemical topics
Challenge: writing-intensive and integrate chemistry with fine artsSpent a year developing the course

Year 1 – Fall 2010• Shared a single section• 4 overall topics covered
• 5 lab activities• Several assessments
Need for Improvement:
• Too many assessments• Not enough in-class writing, additional help required• Final project needed revision• More integrated approach• Hands-on activities key• Lack of literature

Paper Making
• Attracted a variety of students• Awareness of how chemistry and art relate
• Excitement and personal experience to the course• Learned from each other

Year 2 – Fall 2011
• Each had our own section• 4 to 3 topics
• 3 hands-on activities• Added field trip to NY
• Change in assessments (portfolios)• ARTStor and peer tutors added (Diane)
• Objectives and assignments more clearly defined

Lessons Learned
• Students need help with writing• Teach chemistry and art in context of topics
• Less is more• Hands-on activities crucial to success
• Time-intensive for instructors• Ideas to generate discussion
