Bivall, Petter; Ainsworth, Shaaron; Tibell, Lena A. E. – Science Education, 2011
This study explored whether adding a haptic interface (that provides users with somatosensory information about virtual objects by force and tactile feedback) to a three-dimensional (3D) chemical model enhanced students' understanding of complex molecular interactions. Two modes of the model were compared in a between-groups pre- and posttest…

Claesgens, Jennifer; Scalise, Kathleen; Wilson, Mark; Stacy, Angelica – Science Education, 2009
Preliminary pilot studies and a field study show how a generalizable conceptual framework calibrated with item response modeling can be used to describe the development of student conceptual understanding in chemistry. ChemQuery is an assessment system that uses a framework of the key ideas in the discipline, called the Perspectives of Chemists,…
