Building "My First NMRviewer": A Project Incorporating Coding and Programming Tasks in the Undergraduate Chemistry Curricula
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Arrabal-Campos, Francisco M.; Cortés-Villena, Alejandro; Fernández, Ignacio – Journal of Chemical Education, 2017
This paper presents a programming project named NMRviewer that allows students to visualize transformed and processed 1 H NMR data in an accessible, interactive format while allowing instructors to incorporate programming content into the chemistry curricula. Using the MATLAB graphical user interface development environment (GUIDE), students can…

A Procedure to Create a Pedagogic Conversational Agent in Secondary Physics and Chemistry Education
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Pérez-Marín, Diana; Boza, Antonio – International Journal of Information and Communication Technology Education, 2013
Pedagogic Conversational Agents are computer applications that can interact with students in natural language. They have been used with satisfactory results on the instruction of several domains. The authors believe that they could also be useful for the instruction of Secondary Physics and Chemistry Education. Therefore, in this paper, the…

The Challenge '88 Project: Interfacing of Chemical Instruments to Computers.
Lyons, Jim; Verghese, Manoj – 1988
The main part of this project involved using a computer, either an Apple or an IBM, as a chart recorder for the infrared (IR) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectrophotometers. The computer "reads" these machines and displays spectra on its monitor. The graphs can then be stored for future reference and manipulation. The program to…

Challenge '89: Interfacing of Chemical Instruments to Computers.
Lyons, Jim; Lamarre, Colin – 1989
This project involved interfacing of microcomputers with three chemical instruments--Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR), Infrared Spectroscopy (IR), and the spectrophotometer. A Pascal program called "Spectrum" allows data from the NMR to be read and graphed, a specific area of the graph zoomed, ratios of specified areas of the graph…

To Determine the Percentage of Copper in a Brass Screw Using a Computer Interface with a Colorimeter.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Horgan, Joan; Hedge, Robyn – Australian Science Teachers Journal, 1997
Year 11 students investigated the real-world problem of whether screws are really brass. It allowed them to use the colorimeter and computer interface in a way that was easily understood and models normal practice in testing laboratories. Screws were dissolved in nitric acid and their absorbance of red light was compared with a standard curve.…

User Control and Task Authenticity for Spatial Learning in 3D Environments
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Dalgarno, Barney; Harper, Barry – Australasian Journal of Educational Technology, 2004
This paper describes two empirical studies which investigated the importance for spatial learning of view control and object manipulation within 3D environments. A 3D virtual chemistry laboratory was used as the research instrument. Subjects, who were university undergraduate students (34 in the first study and 80 in the second study), undertook…
