Middlecamp, Catherine Hurt; Kean, Elizabeth – Journal of Chemical Education, 2022
Issues of diversity, equity, inclusion, and respect have a history at colleges and universities in the United States. Over 40 years ago, to address these issues at a large public university, the authors created a "tutorial program" (equivalent to a parallel educational system) that enabled a diverse cohort of students to succeed in their…

Lorena Atarés Huerta; Juan Antonio Llorens Molina – Journal of Chemical Education, 2023
Despite the demonstrated learning benefits of peer evaluation, fears of teachers about its low reliability may restrict its use. In this study, the validity of peer assessment, in terms of agreement with the ratings of the teacher, has been tested in an organic chemistry course. The students were organized into small groups and commissioned to…

Julia Eckhard; Marc Rodemer; Sascha Bernholt; Nicole Graulich – Journal of Chemical Education, 2022
Supporting students in building well-grounded explanations plays a crucial role in scientific practice. Research in organic chemistry education on students' mechanistic explanations, however, has revealed various challenges. When solving mechanistic tasks, students experience difficulties when (I) deriving implicit properties from structural…

D'Ambruoso, Gemma D.; Cremeens, Matthew E.; Hendricks, Brett R. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2018
Instructional videos have been prepared using Adobe Captivate software to create animated tutorials to capture instrument and molecular modeling software simulations and to allow for increased independent hands-on instrument use by students and faster training for instructors and teaching assistants. The videos are available on YouTube and can be…

Higman, Carolyn S.; Situ, Henry; Blacklin, Peter; Hein, Jason E. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2017
Advances in 3D printing technology over the past decade have led to its expansion into all subfields of science, including chemistry. This technology provides useful teaching tools that facilitate communication of difficult chemical concepts to students and researchers. Presented here is the use of 3D printing technology to create tangible models…

Burrmann, Nicola J.; Moore, John W. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2013
A Web-based stereochemistry tutorial is described that details the core definitions and structural representations of stereochemistry in an organic chemistry course. The Cahn-Ingold-Prelog rules and their application for assigning "R" and "S" orientations to stereocenters and "E" and "Z" orientations to…

McRae, Christopher; Karuso, Peter; Liu, Fei – Journal of Chemical Education, 2012
The Web is now a standard tool for information access and dissemination in higher education. The prospect of Web-based, simulated learning platforms and technologies, however, remains underexplored. We have developed a Web-based tutorial program (ChemVoyage) for a third-year organic chemistry class on the topic of pericyclic reactions to…

O'Sullivan, Timothy P.; Hargaden, Gra´inne C. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2014
This article describes the development and implementation of an open-access organic chemistry question bank for online tutorials and assessments at University College Cork and Dublin Institute of Technology. SOCOT (structure-based organic chemistry online tutorials) may be used to supplement traditional small-group tutorials, thereby allowing…
