Dragan Zlatkovic´; Miljana Ðordevic´ Zlatkovic´; Niko Radulovic´ – Journal of Chemical Education, 2023
Herein, we present a program implemented in Python that utilizes a simple complete-search algorithm to determine the geometry of a lanthanide-substrate (LS) complex. The program serves as a practical project in a programming course for chemistry students, specifically aimed at illustrating fundamental concepts such as decision-making, repetition,…

Lockwood, Elise – Cognition and Instruction, 2022
In this paper, I discuss undergraduate students' engagement in basic Python programming while solving combinatorial problems. Students solved tasks that were designed to involve programming, and they were encouraged to engage in activities of prediction and reflection. I provide data from two paired teaching experiments, and I outline how the task…

Simon D. Weaver; G. Alex Ambrose; Rebecca J. Whelan – Journal of Chemical Education, 2022
Students completing undergraduate majors in chemistry are not typically required to undergo formal training in computer programming or coding. As a result, many chemistry students are graduating without skills in understanding, writing, or manipulating computer code. This skills gap places students at a disadvantage, considering the widespread and…

Margulieux, Lauren E.; Catrambone, Richard; Schaeffer, Laura M. – Instructional Science: An International Journal of the Learning Sciences, 2018
Originally intended as a replication study, this study discusses differences in problem solving performance among different domains caused by the same instructional intervention. The learning sciences acknowledges similarities in the learners' cognitive architecture that allow interventions to apply across domains, but it also argues that each…
