Abstract

The six programs in this collection are a sampling from a set of about 70 programs () prepared at the University of the Witwatersrand that cover much of a freshman year of general chemistry, and are also suitable for Advanced Placement Chemistry students. The programs have a uniform appearance for ease of use. They are not tutorials, that is they do not teach the subject. They instead provide an opportunity for interactive practice of the material while receiving helpful guidance (after either success or failure) in dealing with the problems presented. Each program should take a student from 10 to 30 minutes to complete.

  This study showed that predicting student errors by even the most experienced of instructors is insufficient in developing a database for anticipated errors. Instructors predicted only 39 to 54% of the wrong answers for common general chemistry problems. ...

  This paper outlines a systematic approach to teaching chemical equilibrium using simulation experiments that address most known alternate conceptions in the topic. Graphs drawn using the data from the simulations are identical to those obtained using real ...
