Abstract:

An online course of physical chemistry experiment was developed. The primary goal of the course is to bridge the gap between the challenges posed by physical chemistry experiment and limited classroom teaching time. Moreover, we anticipate that the course will compensate for the shortcomings of traditional physical chemistry experiment teaching, which emphasizes the process and ignores the results. This online course should cultivate student knowledge, skills, and thinking ability through modules, such as experimental principles, instrument operation simulation, experimental exercises, and problem solving. Furthermore, the course can serve as a remarkable complementary approach to offline experimental operation training. The online course of physical chemistry experiment provides a prerequisite for flipping the traditional classroom of physical chemistry experiment and significantly improves teaching effects.
