This article examines newly introduced eccentricity topological descriptors that are used to analyze the structures of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. The purpose is to identify structural components that have a significant impact on physicochemical properties. Regression analysis applies to find potential correlation between different drugs…

Urgent action is needed across the world to combat climate change and its impact on the social, economic, and environmental well-being of humans and the planet. This important topic is one that is a priority for integration into chemistry classrooms, laboratories, and outreach efforts. It connects strongly to foundational chemistry concepts and…

Despite the intrinsic interdisciplinary nature of STEM, teaching interdisciplinarity in the classroom is difficult and students struggle to find the applicability of concepts and skills in different scientific disciplines. In this work we propose a micro-credential "badge" system called Demonstrated Understanding of Core Knowledge (DUCK)…

There is increasing interest in the use of artificial intelligence technologies, which have become a transformative force in the field of education, in educational fields that include subject areas that support lifelong learning, such as science and chemistry education. In this study, a systematic review was conducted on the use and effects of…

This study explores the integration of STEM principles into chemistry education through the redesign of the topic Chemical Reactions for initial teacher training. The aim was to develop and evaluate an innovative teaching module that fosters key competences--knowledge, skills, and attitudes--via student-centred, context-based, and…
