Kenneth Adu-Gyamfi is a SENIOR LECTURER in the Department of Science Education, College of Education Studies, University of Cape Coast, Ghana. Kenneth does research in Science Education, Chemistry Education, Teaching Methods, and Teacher Education. Kenneth works with his post-graduate students on Teachers' and Students' Conceptual Difficulties in Chemistry, such as the Mole Concept, Qualitative Analysis, Thermochemistry, Hybridisation, Carbon Compounds, Stoichiometry, Functional Group detection, and Effective Science Teaching.

I believe students can develop a conceptual (scientific) understanding of chemistry devoid of alternative conceptions. Hence, I believe in using cognitive conflicting instructional approaches in teaching chemistry.
