Petillion, Riley J.; McNeil, W. Stephen – Journal of Chemical Education, 2020
A growing body of educational research is demonstrating the improvements to learning gains and student performance that can be promoted by a flipped-classroom model in university chemistry courses. Usually, a core aspect of the flipped-class model is the student viewing of a preclass instructional video, allotting time for an in-class activity…

Knox, Kerry J.; Gillis, Elizabeth A. L.; Dake, Gregory R. – Chemistry Education Research and Practice, 2019
Demands are placed on undergraduate courses in chemistry to develop transferable skills, such as teamwork, alongside subject content and technical skills. Such skills can be developed by implementing pedagogies which involve students working together. Such pedagogies can, however, pose various challenges, including unfavourable student perceptions…

David Ross Hall; Jessica C. D’eon – Journal of Chemical Education, 2023
Chemistry is increasingly data centric and the undergraduate curriculum needs to adjust to keep up. To address this, we created the "Air Quality Activity," a new first-year undergraduate activity where students use Microsoft Excel to analyze a unique subset of atmospheric ozone (O[subscript 3]) and nitrogen dioxide (NO[subscript 2])…

Shira Joudan; Holly Barrett; Amila O. De Silva; Shane R. de Solla; Hui Peng; Jessica C. D'eon – Journal of Chemical Education, 2022
Fieldwork is a meaningful and authentic learning experience that is rarely included in undergraduate chemistry courses. In this laboratory, we visited a hot spot of perfluoroalkyl acid (PFAA) contamination identified in 2012, in Binbrook, Ontario, Canada, a 1 h drive from the University of Toronto. The persistence and unique environmental…

Meintzer, Chris; Sutherland, Frances; Kennepohl, Dietmar K. – International Review of Research in Open and Distributed Learning, 2017
The Canadian Remote Sciences Laboratories (CRSL) website (www.remotelab.ca) was successfully employed in a study of the differences in the performance and perceptions of students' about their learning in the laboratory (in-person) versus learning at a remote location (remote access). The experiment was completed both in-person and via remote…
