Ernest Koranteng – Science Education International, 2024
This study aimed to uncover common difficulties and possible areas for improvement by focusing on the approaches and errors made by 3rd-year undergraduate chemistry students in solving organic synthesis problems. The study employed a purposive sampling technique to select 112 undergraduate chemistry major students to participate in this study.…

Eleni K. Geragosian; Diana Zhu; Marc Skriloff; Ginger V. Shultz – Chemistry Education Research and Practice, 2024
Chemistry graduate teaching assistants (GTAs) have substantial facetime with undergraduate students at large research institutions where they lead discussion and lab sessions. Emerging research describes GTAs' content and teaching knowledge for introductory chemistry classes, but we need to know more about how GTAs manage their classes in the…

Shawn Michael Luce – ProQuest LLC, 2024
Though job opportunities in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) continue to expand in the United States, people on Individualized Education Programs (IEPs) while in school are continually disadvantaged in future STEM-based career possibilities. Studies have shown that students on IEPs are far less likely to major in a STEM degree…

Priyanka Lekhi; Trish Varao-Sousa – Chemistry Education Research and Practice, 2024
Team-based learning (TBL) is an instructional strategy where students participate in a set of activities including, applying course concepts to real-life case studies in instructor-selected teams. Here, we describe how TBL has been incorporated into a 3rd year, large, environmental chemistry course and investigate the benefits of using this…

Inaltekin, Tufan; Akcay, Hakan; Duru, Mehmet Kursad – International Journal of Research in Education and Science, 2023
This study aims to examine pre-service science teachers' (PSTs') model-based (MB) content knowledge (CK) and knowledge of students' understanding (KSU) of chemical bonds. The participants of the study consist of 229 senior pre service science teachers. The study is a case study from qualitative research designs. The data of the study were…

Ming Chi; Changlong Zheng; Peng He – Science & Education, 2024
Chemical thinking has been widely recognized as a core competence for supporting students' problem solving in chemistry education. Disciplinary essential questions and perspectives are two critical aspects of chemical thinking. This study connects essential questions with such perspectives to develop a new framework for restructuring chemical…

Rebecca C. Fantone; Eleni Geragosian; Megan Connor; Ginger V. Shultz – Chemistry Education Research and Practice, 2024
Proton nuclear magnetic resonance ([superscript 1]H NMR) spectroscopy is an essential characterization tool for organic chemists widely taught in the undergraduate chemistry curricula. Previous work has focused on how students advance from novice to expert in interpreting [superscript 1]H NMR spectra. However, we need to know more about how…

Jessica D. Young; Betül Demirdögen; Christopher F. Bauer; Scott E. Lewis – Chemistry Education Research and Practice, 2025
Peer-led team learning is a socially mediated pedagogy where trained peer leaders, students who have completed a course, return to lead students in groups within a targeted course. The effect of peer-led team learning to improve student success in chemistry has been extensively documented but it is unclear if it is just as effective at…

Schwarz, Gunnar – Journal of Chemical Education, 2021
Lectures can be enriched by engaging students with active learning components. Classroom response systems (CRSs), which run on the mobile electronic devices of students, make the "clicker" principle more accessible, facilitate active engagement of students in the lecture hall, and are well-suited to promote formative assessment. Opposite…

Musengimana, Jeannette; Kampire, Edwige; Ntawiha, Philothère – Journal of Baltic Science Education, 2022
This study intended to measure the effect of Task-Based Learning (TBL) on lower secondary school students' understanding of chemical reactions. The study employed a quasi-experimental pre and post-test research design with eight intact classes of 369 students purposively selected from eight schools in two districts in Rwanda. The experimental…

Shenzhong Yan; Daner Sun; Qing Zhou; Yuqin Yang; Peiyao Tian – Journal of Computing in Higher Education, 2025
The study of pedagogical design and development for virtual laboratory in science education in higher education is limited. Few tailored pedagogical approaches have been adopted for developing students higher order thinking (i.e. reflective thinking skills) in virtual laboratory enabled learning in the university level. For addressing these, this…

Ndlovu, Bongani Prince; Malcolm, Stephen Andrew – African Journal of Research in Mathematics, Science and Technology Education, 2022
Topic-specific pedagogical content knowledge (TSPCK) enables teachers to transform pedagogically difficult content for specific science topics into forms more easily understood by learners. In science teaching, there is evidence pointing to poor learner performance in key chemistry topics such as stoichiometry. This paper reports on the changes in…

Lopez-Simo, Victor; Grimalt-Alvaro, Carme; Sanmarti, Neus – Chemistry Education Research and Practice, 2023
In this research, we have explored the possible differences in students' performance in grade nine chemistry exams that could have been influenced by a different instructional approach in grade eight. We compared two groups of students: one group had received a transmissive propaedeutic approach in grade eight (especially related to the memorising…

Megan C. Connor; Jeffrey R. Raker – Chemistry Education Research and Practice, 2024
Despite institutional reform efforts to increase use of evidence-based instructional practices (EBIPs) in undergraduate chemistry and STEM courses, didactic lecture remains the predominant mode of instruction. Research to inform these initiatives routinely focuses on drivers and barriers to EBIP adoption, with recent work investigating factors…

Adu-Gyamfi, Kenneth; Elikem Vorsah, Rejoice – Problems of Education in the 21st Century, 2022
A good number of instructional strategies are identified to help students overcome their learning difficulties in the mole concept. However, Ghanaian senior high school students continue to have difficulties in the mole concept. Hence, there was the need to examine the perceived nature of learning the mole concept in the perspectives of male and…
