Abstract

This presentation includes the preliminary findings of the ongoing PChemLO project, a collaboration between the Divisions of Chemistry Education and Physical Chemistry. The main objectives are: (a) to develop learning objects, and (b) to investigate student attitudes and motivation to utilize these learning objects for advanced chemistry topics, specifically physical chemistry.

All learning objects are designed based on the principles of Inquiry-Based Science Education (IBSE), with an emphasis on integrating educational technology to support self-study. The Moodle LMS system was used for deployment, allowing for tracking of student interactions. The presentation focuses on the initial findings regarding the development of the learning objects and their effect on student learning, particularly investigating learner attitudes and other affective dimensions (as covariates) with respect to knowledge gain (as dependent variable).
