Mount Students Provide Hands-On Experience to Local Youth

Nursing majors at the University of Mount Union took part in the CHE 115 Service Learning Project (SLP) at Washington Elementary, where the students performed and explained chemistry demonstrations to students related to real life medical or health science. Dr. Sheryl Mason, Associate Professor, Department of Biochemistry, Chemistry and Physics, has been doing this project for several years, taking a break during COVID, then resuming in 2023. Mason's goal for the freshmen nursing majors is to research, learn and explain the college-level chemistry behind a fun demonstration. The students then practice teaching the science in a kid-friendly, fun, simplified, yet accurate way. This project is a component of the laboratory part of the course.
