Problem based learning (PBL) in Organic Chemistry

Amina Hamed Alobaidi

Abstract: Background: PBL appears to answer many concerns regarding educational methods, encourages students to look for new solutions to relevant problems using available knowledge and resources. The process expands students' critical thinking and problem solving skills while enhancing their creative capabilities Objective: To develop a PBL modules for teaching of organic chemistry. Methods: This module was developed for implementation in the curriculum of Chemistry Departments in Colleges of Sciences and E… Show more

The current paper reports social presence in web-based discussion for their conceptual learning of organic chemistry class. The study examined students-students, students-instructor, and students-leaning materials interactions via the designed web-based discussion. We developed an online forum nicknamed" Universal Chemistry Network to enhance communication among students and teachers in organic chemistry class. A sample of 138 senior ve students was purposively selected from two secondary schools located in Kicukiro district, Eastern province in Rwanda. A questionnaire composed of multiplechoice and open-ended questions was used to collect data. Descriptive statistics and interpretive analysis were used to analyze data. The results revealed that the use of web-based discussion is the potential and effective teaching method for enhancing students' -student's and student's-teacher's interaction in organic chemistry class also students appreciated this teaching and learning method as it helped them to search for additional information, exchange their ideas, knowledge, and experiences. A web-based discussion was also found to provide the students with the potential con dence and motivation to express freely their ideas. The challenges faced by students during web-based discussion while learning organic chemistry were also examined

Chemistry subject continues to be considered as difficult to teach and learn. This leads to students’ low academic achievement, retention, and negative attitude towards the subject. Organic chemistry as one of the concepts on which technological advancement is constructed sometimes appears to be enormously complex to students. There are some persisting misconceptions about it although different innovative instructional strategies have been applied and this area is of main concern as the learning of students can be extremely hindered in case their misconceptions are not minimized and/or corrected. The review then is to equip educators with knowledge about organic chemistry concept and source of students ‘misconceptions; the misconceptions of students about organic chemistry; the ways of diagnosing students’ misconceptions and remedies of those misconceptions; some learning theories for the effective organic chemistry instruction and classroom implications. The paper is also useful to know more about the minimization of students’ misconceptions and leading them to the great academic achievement and interest towards the subject by employing cooperative learning models; thus, many other different innovative teaching strategies are recommended to apply in organic chemistry instruction
