O'Malley, Patrick J.; Agger, Jonathan R.; Anderson, Michael W. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2015
An analysis is presented of the experience and lessons learned of running a MOOC in introductory physical chemistry. The course was unique in allowing students to conduct experimental measurements using a virtual laboratory constructed using video and simulations. A breakdown of the student background and motivation for taking the course is…
