Nominations for New & Noteworthy Due January 31st!

Hi Chemistry Education Community, 

Have you read a chemistry education research paper in the last year that changed how you think about research or practice? Such a paper might add nuance to how you think about the assets students bring to the classroom, or suggest large-scale policy changes that are needed to cultivate more equitable chemistry learning spaces. If you can think of a landmark paper in our field that was published in the last two years, please suggest it for inclusion in the New and Noteworthy Symposium!
