Yanjun Wang; Yingying Jiang; Xi Chen; Hang Zhang; Pengcheng Lei; Weifeng Zhang; Wenyi Liu; Lijiao Wang; Xiaolong He; Huali Wang; Yu Rao; Lingling Yang – Journal of Chemical Education, 2025
A Drug Synthesis Reaction (DSR) course is required for undergraduates majoring in pharmacy, pharmaceutical engineering, and related majors. It aims to systematically teach students the theoretical knowledge and experimental skills of drug synthesis so that they can better adapt to drug synthesis related work after graduation. Given the…

Hight, Matthew O.; Nguyen, Nhien Q.; Su, Timothy A. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2021
This article describes the educational and public engagement outcomes of an activity called the "ChemClout Challenge" that was implemented in a general chemistry course at UC Riverside. Students worked in groups to make chemistry-themed videos, posted them to social media platforms, then voted on their favorite videos. The majority of…

Tran, Kiet; Beshir, Anwar; Vaze, Abhay – Journal of Chemical Education, 2020
A comparison of the experiences of both organic and analytical lab faculty during the COVID-19 pandemic distance learning initiative is described here. Faculty of both lab courses experienced four shared challenges in the transition to the online format: (1) experimental implementation; (2) assessments and postlab activities; (3) technological…

Schweiker, Stephanie S.; Griggs, Ben K.; Levonis, Stephan M. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2020
Organic reaction mechanisms are one of the most challenging question types in introductory organic chemistry subjects. We identified that the students within our health-based programs had traditionally performed poorly with these question types. With the aim to increase student engagement, we have developed a series of lightboard videos…

Ramachandran, Roshini; Sparck, Erin M.; Levis-Fitzgerald, Marc – Journal of Chemical Education, 2019
Numerous online resources provide a variety of content for a wide range of STEM topics; however, they tend to function as isolated tidbits that provide content-specific knowledge. Application-based science education videos address the overlooked issue of concept to application by implementing experimental components in their videos and fostering…

Using Continuous Student Feedback to Course-Correct during COVID-19 for a Nonmajors Chemistry Course
Hwang, Candy S. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2020
The two major impetuses to improve STEM education are the shift to online learning and increasing active learning and engagement. Although the COVID-19 pandemic necessitated a rapid shift to online learning, this shift came at the cost of losing on-ground active learning strategies. This study provides descriptive analytical information on the…

Baker, Rose M.; Leonard, Matthew E.; Milosavljevic, Bratoljub H. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2020
This communication reports the curriculum changes and how they worked when an upper-level experimental physical chemistry course had to switch from face-to-face to online teaching within a matter of days. Although several of the learning goals of the laboratory-based course could still be met in the online environment, others required…

Jolley, Dianne F.; Wilson, Stephen R.; Kelso, Celine; O'Brien, Glennys; Mason, Claire E. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2016
This project utilizes visual and critical thinking approaches to develop a higher-education synergistic prelab training program for a large second-year undergraduate analytical chemistry class, directing more of the cognitive learning to the prelab phase. This enabled students to engage in more analytical thinking prior to engaging in the…

Locknar, Angela; Mitchell, Rudolph; Rankin, Janet; Sadoway, Donald R. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2012
A first-year chemistry course is ideal for introducing students to finding and using scholarly information early in their academic careers. A four-pronged approach (lectures, homework problems, videos, and model solutions) was used to incorporate library research skills into a large lecture-based course. Pre- and post-course surveying demonstrated…
