Chemistry

Introduction

Thank you for joining in the effort to use, expand, and share OER Chemistry materials! We hope the following resources and ideas will help you in your own efforts to adopt or adapt OER for your courses.

We invite you to share in the collaboration and wisdom-sharing of the OER community. Slack is a free, easy-to-use tool for communication and collaboration. It offers channels for group conversations on specific topics, including Science-Natural and Chemistry.

You can also send direct messages to individuals or groups. Use it from any computer or mobile device.
