Schmidt, Jonas; Huber, Tim; Mu¨ssig, Jo¨rg – Journal of Chemical Education, 2022
The knowledge of the mechanical properties of polymers and other materials is essential for several tasks in the field of materials science, like component design and material development. The tensile test is one method of determining many of the material's most defining mechanical characteristics. However, the teaching of laboratory experiments…

Cheng Wei Lim; Kong Yen Liew; Sie Hui Lim; Manraj Singh Cheema; Puteri Suhaiza Sulaiman; Hanis Hazeera Harith; Hasni Idayu Saidi; Chau Ling Tham – International Journal of Educational Technology in Higher Education, 2024
The high cost of establishing a cell and tissue culture facility has denied students an opportunity to practice proper aseptic techniques during their studies. An in-house application named AsepticTech Virtual Reality (VR) was developed to simulate a cell and tissue culture facility for students to train their aseptic techniques virtually.…

Priya Yadav; Harshita Laddha; Madhu Agarwal; Ragini Gupta – Journal of Chemical Education, 2022
A smartphone-based digital imaging method has been successfully introduced in an undergraduate laboratory class to quantify fluoride ions in water. Students first synthesized the chemosensor (E)-2-(1-(6-nitro-2-oxo-2H-chromen-3-yl)ethylidene)-N-phenylhydrazine-1-carbothioamide (CT) via an eco-friendly and green microwave-assisted protocol and…
