Online chemistry simulations are effective at helping visualize and understand particle interactions; yet, we are still learning how to best use them in out-of-classroom setting to enhance student learning…
Large introductory lecture courses are typically college students’ first university level experience with STEM disciplines and set the stage for individual student’s self-perception of success in the discipline…
In this project we analyzed the exam writing of ten chemistry faculty members across multiple institutions who participated in the STEM Gateway Fellowship, a multi-year professional development program designed to introduce faculty to 3-dimensional (3D) learning and assessments…
Students are increasingly looking to sites like YouTube to support their learning of chemistry. Especially with the recent shift to remote instruction necessitated by COVID, there are a plethora of videos available to students…
YouTube is known for having videos for everything, but over half the people who use YouTube do so to learn something new, including chemistry concepts…
[HYBRID SESSION] This symposium provides a broad forum for chemistry education research (CER) including but not limited to quantitative, qualitative, mixed methods, and action research studies…
Where do students go when they want to learn something? YouTube. Though true before the pandemic, the shift to remote instruction made many students more reliant on learning from videos and they had more videos than ever to choose from…
YouTube videos are used by students as a supplemental resource for educational topics such as intermolecular forces (IMFs), however, these videos range in quality. Students generally lack the ability to determine the quality of a video as they are still learning the concepts…
