Map of the parking lot and the Madren Center floor plan attached below. Also available at the WCACS section website. Abstract: In the first part of the seminar I will discuss my many world-renowned outreach projects, how they came to be, their design origins, launch details, how they have been sustained non-stop since their creation and how they have seeded multiple other projects. The second part of the seminar will be focused on my experience teaching a blind student Organic Chemistry in a one-on-one setting and how that was accomplished and what I created along the way finally culminating in writing up a Journal of Chemical Education article when I realized no one had written up such “best practices/experiences”. We hope to see you there!
