As high school science teachers we have been challenged to provide a restructured chemistry curriculum that more effectively engages students in the process of science and its relevance in their lives. This revision has taken us from a traditional to a performance-based approach that has been shown to enhance long-term memory and student comprehension. By blending the best of traditional and nontraditional teaching and assessment methods, we have derived a curriculum suitable to students' needs.

Our Secondary School editors work hard to distill all the JCE materials to produce a fraction of particular interest to high school teachers. We call it CLIC.
In recent years we have worked hard to better match our advertisers with our readers. When shopping for chemistry education materials, visit our advertisers' WWW sites first.
