Ford, Robyn; Broadway, Susan; Mason, Diana – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2023
Contributed data reflective of students' compliance in doing electronic homework (e-HW) exercises when asked to choose when required e-HW assignments are due are evaluated using a quasi-experimental format with non-equivalent groups to determine if first-semester general chemistry (Chem I) students (N = 273) will academically benefit from improved…

Tang, Diya; Odeleye, Oluwatobi – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2023
Student perceptions toward homework assigned in general chemistry courses was investigated in this study. The study participants were required to complete homework assignments using two different online systems, ALEKS (adaptive-responsive system) and Sapling (traditional-responsive system). An online survey investigating their general perceptions…

Nabulsi, Leena; Nguyen, Amy; Odeleye, Oluwatobi – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2021
Online homework systems have been shown to help student achievement in chemistry courses. This study sought to compare the levels of knowledge retention in students over the course of a semester, using two different types of homework systems--the adaptive-responsive system and the traditional-responsive system. Two sections of a first semester…

Olakanmi, Eunice Eyitayo – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2017
This study establishes the effects of a flipped classroom model of instruction on academic performance and attitudes of 66 first-year secondary school students towards chemistry. A pre-test and post-test experimental design was employed to assign students randomly into either the experimental or control group. In order to assess the suitability of…
