Sofie Ye; Maja Elmgren; Magnus Jacobsson; Felix M. Ho – Chemistry Education Research and Practice, 2024
Problem solving in chemical kinetics poses substantial challenges for university students since it often involves significant use of mathematics as a tool and language, with challenging translations and transitions between chemical phenomena and mathematical representations. In this paper, we present key findings from a study investigating…

Martinez-Luaces, Victor – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2009
In engineering careers courses, differential equations are widely used to solve problems concerned with modelling. In particular, ordinary differential equations (O.D.E.) linear systems appear regularly in Chemical Engineering, Food Technology Engineering and Environmental Engineering courses, due to the usefulness in modelling chemical kinetics,…
