Vergne, Matthew J.; Smith, J. Dominic; Bowen, Ryan S. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2020
An online virtual escape-room game was created using the Google Forms survey app for an undergraduate chemistry lab class. Zoom video conferencing service was used to make the activity a collaborative learning experience. The theme was an escape from an abandoned chocolate factory, and the students solved problems to move to the next section or…

Petterson, Michael N.; Watts, Field M.; Snyder-White, Emma P.; Archer, Sabrina R.; Shultz, Ginger V.; Finkenstaedt-Quinn, Solaire A. – Chemistry Education Research and Practice, 2020
An understanding of acid-base reactions is necessary for success in chemistry courses and relevant to careers outside of chemistry, yet research has demonstrated that students often struggle with learning acid-base reaction mechanisms in organic chemistry. One response to this challenge is the development of educational applications to support…

Rathod, Balraj B.; Murthy, Sahana; Bandyopadhyay, Subhajit – Journal of Chemical Education, 2019
"Is this solution pink enough?" is a persistent question when it comes to phenolphthalein-based titration experiments, one that budding, novice scientists often ask their instructors. Lab instructors usually answer the inquiry with remarks like, "Looks like you have overshot the end point", "Perhaps you should check the…
