Experimentium: A New Collection of Accessible OER Chemistry Lab Curricula
26.11.2025, 00:00–00:45 o'clock (Europe/Berlin), Orange Room

Experimentium is a customizable digital OER collection that supports instructors in their implementation of chemistry lab curricula at every level of experience with science education. Novice faculty will find turn-key experiment collections suitable for select courses that can be implemented in face to face or remote classes with associated supply lists. Experimentium supports ongoing professional development for lab instructors through case studies to teach teamwork and collaboration in the labs, best practices in providing feedback, grading reports using a rubric, etc. The student experience is also enhanced through integrated chemistry, math, and scientific writing tutorials in addition to video-based experiment demonstrations, all combined in a uniformly formatted prompt that provides scaffolded learning.
This talk will demonstrate the functionality of Experimentium in creating lab curricula of varying levels of customization to meet the needs of novice to expert educators.
