Open Notebook Science ACS March07 (JCB)

Here is my talk "Open Notebook Science using Blogs and Wikis" at the American Chemical Society meeting in Chicago on March 27, 2007 at the Communicating Chemistry Symposium.

The first half is basically a condensed summary of how we are using UsefulChem to do Open Science. I then demonstrate for the first time Dave's Excel code to compute kinetics from JCAMP NMR reaction profiles and the building in Second Life where Beth and Eloise have help me to set up a poster room with NMR spectra, molecules and an organic chemistry quiz.

Teaching Organic Chemistry with Blogs and Wikis (JCBMarch07)

This is my first talk at the American Chemical Society conference in Chicago on March 25, 2007. I describe the evolution of my teaching practices using technology over the past few years, involving blogs, wikis, podcasting, vodcasting, games and class workshops.
