Brian Shambare; Thuthukile Jita – Rural Educator, 2025
Despite the promising advantages of cutting-edge technologies like virtual laboratories (VL) for enhancing science education, a significant gap remains between their theoretical benefits and practical application, particularly in rural schools in the Global South. This article argues that the effective integration of VL is largely dependent on…

Paul Bazelais; Gurinder Binner; Tenzin Doleck – Interactive Learning Environments, 2024
As an important tool for STEM education, online labs have gained significant research attention. However, our understanding of online labs is limited by the inattention to the factors that contribute to the acceptance of online labs. This study adopts the UTAUT model to investigate the salient determinants of use of online labs. We test the…

Govindarajoo, Geeta; Lee, June Y.; Emenike, Mary Elizabeth – Journal of Chemical Education, 2021
Digital badges are credentials earned via a digital presentation to demonstrate the mastery of a technique. They have been utilized in General Chemistry laboratory courses as an assessment tool and to document students' development of a skill. A digital badge assignment was developed for thin layer chromatography (TLC) and integrated into a…

Pascoe, Michael A. – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2020
Personal computer use for educational purposes by the healthcare professions students has become ubiquitous. Although the effect of computer-based dissection instructions has been studied, there is a paucity of information regarding student browsing habits of information available on the Internet. Although current students have favorable attitudes…

Achuthan, Krishnashree; Kolil, Vysakh Kani; Diwakar, Shyam – Education and Information Technologies, 2018
Molecular symmetry plays a central role in chemistry education with regard to predicting chemical properties such as bonding and spectroscopic transitions. Better understanding of the symmetry of molecules requires high visual-spatial thinking ability. Conventional teaching methodologies, with limited teaching aides, fall short in providing a…

An, Jiwoo; Poly, Laila-Parvin; Holme, Thomas A. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2020
In general chemistry laboratories, students learn practical laboratory skills through hands-on activities and are exposed to new scientific instruments. However, these instruments are often viewed as black boxes for various reasons, where students do not know how to use them or what the instruments are capable of. This tendency is likely to induce…

Gelir, Ali; Kocaman, Merve; Pekacar, Ilgim – Physics Education, 2019
In conventional e/m experiments performed in undergraduate laboratories, generally a simple mechanical ruler is used to measure the radius of the circular trajectory of the electrons. But, the measurement error in this technique is mostly big and varies from one student to another. As an alternative to a mechanical ruler, we proposed a more…

Goller, Carlos C.; Ott, Laura E. – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2020
Metagenomics is a tool that enables researchers to study genetic material recovered directly from microbial communities or microbiomes. Fueled by advances in sequencing technologies, bioinformatics tools, and sample processing, metagenomics studies promise to expand our understanding of human health and the use of microorganisms for agriculture…

Wong, Wing-Kwong; Chao, Tsung-Kai; Chang, Ching-Lung; Chen, Kai-Ping – International Journal of Distance Education Technologies, 2019
There has been an ongoing debate of which physical labs or virtual labs are better. To resolve this issue, a remote lab provides an online lab that can do real experiments to obtain real data from a distant physical lab. Instead of relying on a remote lab, this article suggests that students collect experimental data locally with low-cost data…
