The chemical reaction between different molecules is an important learning subject in a chemistry course. Especially for elementary school students, this can be an abstract concept and therefore difficult to understand. One way to facilitate this learning process is to use Augmented Reality (AR) technology, which is considered as an added value…

Despite the number of university students who take courses in multiple science disciplines, little is known about how they perceive common concepts from different disciplinary perspectives and to what extent they recognize connections among their courses. This dissertation explores students' perceptions of their chemistry and biology courses…

This paper is a case study that reports on findings from a design-based research with the purpose of helping secondary school chemistry students in an all-girls school develop the ability to construct scientific explanations--an important literacy skill in learning science. A series of lessons on the topic of chemical bonding was designed to…
