ConfChem conference on a virtual colloquium to sustain and celebrate IYC 2011 initiatives in global chemical education - MSC100: The French-Polish accent of the IYC2011

摘要

The events organized for IYC 2011 were held in tandem with MSC100, that is, the joint French-Polish celebrations marking the centenary of the awarding of the Nobel Prize for Chemistry to Marie Sk?odowska-Curie. These celebrations emphasized the traditional cultural bonds that exist between the two countries, the unique contribution of Marie and Pierre Curie to the development of science, and the beneficial role of Marie Sk?odowska- Curie's discoveries. This communication summarizes one of the invited papers to the ConfChem online conference A Virtual Colloquium to Sustain and Celebrate IYC 2011 Initiatives in Global Chemical Education, held from May 18 to June 28, 2012, and jointly hosted by the ACS DivCHED Committee on Computers in Chemical Education and the IUPAC Committee on Chemistry Education.
