NMR prediction using ChemDoodle, NMR calculation with Gaussian, and hands-on data collection using a benchtop NMR spectrometer were explored to assess their synergistic capacity in teaching NMR to organic chemistry students. Nine molecules representing functional groups commonly encountered in undergraduate organic chemistry were selected. Spectra…

This case study investigated the conceptual understanding of the Simple Pendulum topic amongst physics student-teachers using online experiments. A pre-experimental design was utilised, employing a one-group pretest-posttest approach with 20 student-teachers. The research instruments included a highspeed video activity conducted within Online…

The aim of this study was to determine the effect of Mobile AR (MAR) supported Flipped Learning Model (FLM) applications on the academic achievement of first year undergraduate students in General Chemistry Laboratory course and to investigate the students' views on MAR supported FLM. In the study carried out with a quasi-experimental design with…

Background: The adoption of virtual laboratories (VLs) has experienced a significant surge, catalysed by the global changes in the educational landscape, notably influenced by the COVID-19 pandemic. Originally supplementary to traditional in-person laboratory experiments, VLs swiftly transitioned into a primary source of hands-on laboratory…

[This paper is part of the "Focused Collection on Instructional Labs: Improving Traditions and New Directions."] Recent studies provide evidence that social constructivist pedagogical methods such as active learning, interactive engagement, and inquiry-based learning, while pedagogically more effective, can enable inequities in the…

This study intended to confirm differences in peer relations between inquisitive and noninquisitive experiment class through social network analysis. In this study, inquiry science experiment classes for 30 students and noninquiry science experiment classes for different 30 students in the chapter named ‚Animals and Energy? of the second year of…

Online video experiments are a promising educational technology tool for science laboratory classes. In order to find optimal instructional designs and scenarios for using online video experiments, we need to study learners' experiences. This work describes implementation of an online interactive video experiment at the undergraduate introductory…

Purpose: The aim of this research is to determine the impact of hands-on science activities on preschool children's motivation for science. Design/Approach/Methods: The study group of the research, in which the quasi-experimental design with pretest-posttest control group was used, consists of 25 children aged 60-72 months who are continuing their…

With the increase of waste paper, environmental pollution and atmospheric impact have become global problems. The cellulose contained in waste paper has the advantages of being renewable and biodegradable and can be applied to many fields to achieve sustainable development. At present, thermal management materials, as a new type of material, have…

The aim of this study was to develop molecular genetics inquiry programs using the "eyes absent" gene of "Drosophila melanogaster." The program was composed of various molecular genetics experiments, including mutation observation, cross-breeding, searching for genetic information in web databases, gDNA extraction, and PCR.…

MóviLab (Moving Lab) was an educational strategy developed at Universidad Industrial de Santander, Colombia, to promote chemistry and science among schoolchildren and teenagers from far rural areas of the Santurbán moor in Colombia during the COVID-19 pandemic. The strategy consisted of designing a kit with chemistry experiments that could be done…

This study investigates the role of a collaboration script, the Funnel Model, in supporting students' computer-supported collaborative scientific argumentation, and how the students appropriated the collaboration script in scientific argumentation. In this exploratory case study, a class of 33 Secondary grade four students went through four phases…

This study introduces a methodological framework for integrating STEM technologies into secondary school chemistry through project-based learning. The research aimed to boost students' interest and engagement in chemistry by involving them in a scientific project called "Water Purification Methods." Eighth-grade students from Kazakhstani…

The study focused on the development of a website that can be used in various fields of science in Junior High School. Particularly, topics that were utilized as part of the re-search report include chromosomes, DNA, and genes for grade 9 learners. This exploratory case study explored learners' engagement and performance on a developed virtual…

This case study examines students' perception, motivation, and learning gain of a teaching unit featuring wireless sensors as tools to collect scientific data in the classroom. Students analyze data using the corresponding cellphone app, communicate findings to the class, and learn about a changing environment. Wireless sensors are produced for…
