Stavrou, Dimitris; Michailidi, Emily; Sgouros, Giannis – Chemistry Education Research and Practice, 2018
Introducing Nanoscience and Nanotechnology (NST) topics into school science curricula is considered useful for an in-depth understanding of the content, processes and nature of science and technology, and also for negotiating the social aspects of science. This study examines (a) the development of an inquiry-based Teaching-Learning Sequence (TLS)…

Dhindsa, Harkirat S.; Treagust, David F. – Chemistry Education Research and Practice, 2014
As an important subject in the curriculum, many students find chemistry concepts difficult to learn and understand. Chemical bonding especially is important in understanding the compositions of chemical compounds and related concepts and research has shown that students struggle with this concept. In this theoretical paper based on analysis of…

Arce, Pedro E.; Oyanader, Mario; Whitaker, Stephen – Chemical Engineering Education, 2007
This paper focuses on the use of scaling aspects for understanding transport processes with reaction in catalytic pores and pellets. The idea is to identify a systematic up-scaling approach in the learning process to help students with several concepts related to the transport-reaction process and the mathematical description associated with them.…
