This study explores the design and delivery of two gamified, virtual laboratories, created to replace or compliment the compulsory third-semester university chemistry laboratories. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, laboratory experiments needed to be adapted to suit both on- and off-campus students. Here, we include detailed guidelines on how to…

The coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic prevented students from attending on-site classes. Consequently, their face-to-face interactions decreased. Thus, it became crucial to design learning activities to enhance the motivation of students and inspire them to achieve the desired learning outcomes during the long disruption of on-site classes. Mobile…

In light of the COVID-19 pandemic, the transition from traditional face-to-face lectures to online learning, as well as the adoption of technology-enabled active learning in the classroom, has been accelerated. Here, we introduce the use of Telegram as a technological tool to support remote learning by helping students identify gaps in their…

During the time of the COVID-19 pandemic, online teaching was implemented by teachers in almost all education areas, and various technological tools were also employed to improve teachers' online teaching effectiveness. Based on this, the current qualitative case study aims to explore chemistry teachers' experience during online teaching in…

Remote delivery approaches to laboratory courses in the response to the COVID-19 pandemic have included a spectrum spanning passive options such as providing students with prerecorded videos of experiments to replacing in-person laboratory experiences with immersive virtual reality environments. While interactive activities that require students…

The COVID-19 pandemic has shifted physical classroom attendance to virtual classes, leading to a more isolated learning process. Even though quarantine has impacted the well-being of all populations, some of them suffered more than others. For instance, teenagers and young adults are at the peak of building their social network and could not…
