Chemistry Education Research and Practice (CERP) is the journal for teachers, researchers and other practitioners at all levels of chemistry education. It is published free of charge electronically four times a year, thanks to sponsorship by the Royal Society of Chemistry's Education Division. Coverage includes the following: Research, and reviews of research, in chemistry education Evaluations of effective innovative practice in the teaching of chemistry In-depth analyses of issues of direct relevance to chemistry education The objectives of the journal: To provide researchers with the means to publish their work in full in a journal exclusively dedicated to chemistry education To offer teachers of chemistry at all levels a place where they can share effective ideas and methods for the teaching and learning of chemistry To bridge the gap between the two groups so that researchers will have their results seen by those who could benefit from using them, and practitioners will gain from encountering the ideas and results of those who have made a particular study of the learning process
