Presentation Transcript

  1. Digital Help Sessions to Enhance Chemistry Courses

  2. Dr. Robert R. Klepper • Professor of Chemistry • Iowa Lakes Community College • Estherville, Iowa

  3. Challenges Faced • Too few instructors • Too many students • Many times under prepared students • Not enough time • Need to work many problems for student understanding

  4. Digital help sessions were the necessary answer to the problem • Increases student contact with the material • Decreases instructor total workload • Answer the same question less frequently • Increase the number of different problems the instructor can work

  5. Help sessions done on Elmo

  6. Project as student sees them

  7. Finished help session

  10. Link to presentations • Chapter 1: Chemistry: The Study of Change • Chapter 2: Atoms, Molecules, and Ions • Chapter 3: Mass Relationships in Chemical Reactions • 1) Lysine, an essential amino acid in the human body, contains C, H, O and N.  In one experiment the complete combustion of 2.175 g lysine gave 3.94 g CO2 and 1.89 g H2O.  In a separate experiment, 1.873 g lysine gave 0.436 g NH3.  Calculate the empirical formula.  The molar mass is approximately 150g, what is the molecular formula of lysine? • First, determine percent by mass. • Then determine empirical formula and molecular formula. • Stoichiometry and Limiting Reagents • 2) • Empirical Formula 01  • Chapter4: Reactions in Aqueous Solutions • Balancing a Redox Reaction in a Basic Solution • acid Base Titration • Precipitation Reaction • Chapter 5: Gases • root mean squared velocity01 • Partial Presure01 • Ideal Gas Law • Density using the ideal gas law • Molar Mass using the ideal gas law • Gas Stoichiometry • Empirical formula and the gas laws • Relationships within the ideal gas law with changing conditions • Chapter 6: Thermochemistry • Chapter 7: Quantum Theory and the Electronic Structure of Atoms

  11. Advantages • Students can attend when they have time • Students can watch over and over if they need to • Students can request specific problems be worked out just like in a regular help session • Instructor can archive year after year so library grows.

  12. Disadvantages • Right now all formats for video are proprietary, cannot save work as .avi or .mov
