PChem Challenge Game: Reinforcing Learning in Physical Chemistry
JOURNAL OF CHEMICAL EDUCATION(2019)
摘要
Physical chemistry has an abstract and demanding nature, and research reveals that students hold negative dispositions toward it. The PChem Challenge Game described in this work is a board game developed to bring an enjoyable approach to reviewing quantum chemistry, spectroscopy, and chemical kinetics concepts at an undergraduate level. The game rules are neither purely luck- nor knowledge-based. Therefore, regardless of background knowledge, all students have a chance to win. As revealed by student and faculty member comments as well as survey and SWOT analysis results, the PChem Challenge Game was engaging, enjoyable, and useful, serving as a tool that provided learning opportunities. Future educational research is needed to evaluate the effectiveness of the game in different higher education contexts.
