The innovation of teaching practices and the improvement of the quality of chemistry teaching, at any learning level, including university, implies reflection and research activities. The meta-reflection on chemistry makes it possible to analyze the logical processes, the cognitive practices, and the conceptual evolution of disciplinary knowledge, helping to clarify the structure and identity of chemistry. The “Ulderico Segre” School of Educational Research and Chemistry Didactics organized by the Division of Chemical education proposes itself annually as a discussion place between university professors and school teachers, aimed at deepening the foundational chemical concepts and at fostering meta-reflection on chemistry.
