In this episode of The Confident Chemistry Teacher Podcast, I’m sharing three powerful lab shifts that helped my students learn more deeply from hands-on activities—and stopped them from just “going through the motions.”

From rethinking your lab timeline to using quizzes and videos strategically, these small changes make a big impact on engagement and retention.

You'll hear: Why I no longer squeeze labs into one class period, How lab quizzes improve accountability, What kinds of videos I create for better student prep and review. 

Plus, I share how these strategies connect to my upcoming Confident Chemistry Lab Membership launching in October! 👉 Want to share your favorite lab shifts? DM me on Instagram @chemschemistryclassroom or send me an email—I'd love to feature your ideas!
