This talk, entitled "Leveraging Transparency and Crowdsourcing in Chemistry Using Open Notebook Science", was part of a symposium on Publishing and Promoting Chemistry in the Internet Age. It consists of an overview of Open Notebook Science with some new content on solubility prediction algorithms written by Andrew Lang and a few example of students taking a...

Jean-Claude Bradley introduces Chemical Information Retrieval (CHEM 367 and CHEM 767) at Drexel University with an overview of topics to be covered. See class wiki at http://getcheminfo.wikispaces.com for details.

Jean-Claude Bradley describes the use of social networking tools to teach undergraduate organic chemistry. Public free wikis can be used effectively to manage class information as well as serve as a versatile platforms to process student assignments and provide rapid feedback. Examples of using Second Life to deliver quizzes, play games and offer students an environment to create projects involving 3D molecules, spectra and posters are detailed. The continuously evolving role of blogs,...

Jean-Claude Bradley discusses Open Notebook Science on April 15, 2009 at the NASA Goddard Space Flight Center. This includes recent material such as ONS logos, the ChemTiles and Spectral Games, automated backup of Google Spreadsheets and automated solubility determinations using web services called from within Google Spreadsheets.
