Abstract
Multi-Initiative Dissemination Project (MID) workshops funded by NSF are designed to expose college instructors from two- and four-year institutions to classroom active-learning techniques from the perspective of four of the NSF-funded chemistry reform projects: ChemConnections, Molecular Science, New Traditions, and Peer-Led Team Learning. Each of these groups conduct hands-on activities to disseminate information about their individual projects during the MID workshops. Participant evaluations from ten MID workshops are summarized to inform potential participants about MID workshop demographics and the goals and benefits of the workshops. The MID workshops are funded from 2001 through 2004.
