Martínez D., Omar; Obaya V., Adolfo Eduardo; Hernández B., Martha P.; Ponce P., Rubén Gerardo; Montaño O., Carlos; Vargas R., Yolanda Marina – Online Submission, 2020
Chemistry teaching learning is considered as difficult and boring. The definition of play, based on authors such as Freud, Piaget and Vigotsky, is presented as a stimulating, pleasant and voluntary activity that in the student facilitates his learning and encompasses the different facets of his physical, psychic, social and emotional development.…

Rabin, Jeffrey M.; Burgasser, Adam; Bussey, Thomas J.; Eggers, John; Lo, Stanley M.; Seethaler, Sherry; Stevens, Laura; Weizman, Haim – International Journal of STEM Education, 2021
Rate of change concepts from calculus are presented and applied rather differently in college mathematics, physics, biology, and chemistry classes. This is not simply a matter of pedagogical style but reflects real cultural differences between these disciplines. We describe the efforts of our interdisciplinary collaboration to understand and…

Bortnik, Boris; Stozhko, Natalia; Pervukhina, Irina – Education Sciences, 2021
Testing as an assessment technique has been widely used at all levels of education--from primary to higher school. The main purpose of the paper is to evaluate the effect of context-based testing in teaching and learning of analytical chemistry in a Russian university. The paper formulates the objectives of context-based testing, discusses its…

Lövheim, Daniel – History of Education, 2021
This article analyses two secondary school competitions -- the International Physics Olympiad (IPhO) and the International Chemistry Olympiad (IChO) -- as platforms for early elite fostering in science between the years 1967 and 1984. It argues that the two arrangements can be understood as one of many Cold War arenas of the time period. The…

To investigate patterns of gender-based performance gaps, we conducted a meta-analysis of published studies and unpublished data collected across 169 undergraduate biology and chemistry courses. While we did not detect an overall gender gap in performance, heterogeneity analyses suggested further analysis was warranted, so we investigated whether…

Casselman, Matthew D.; Eichler, Jack F.; Atit, Kinnari – Science Education, 2021
Embodied learning tools (ELTs), such as building and manipulating models, bolster students' learning of spatially demanding science content, such as stereochemistry. However, studies comparing the effectiveness of virtual to physical ELTs on student learning are limited. This study compares online instruction using a virtual ELT, virtual models,…

Soong, Ronald; Jenne, Amy; Lysak, Daniel H.; Biswas, Rajshree Ghosh; Adamo, Antonio; Kim, Kris S.; Simpson, Andre – Journal of Chemical Education, 2021
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, social distancing restrictions are in place in most public settings, and the undergraduate laboratory is no exception. In order to accommodate social distancing requirements, many laboratory exercises are being redeployed in an online format, which deprives students of experiential learning opportunities in a real…
