Resumen de Student Perspectives on Remote Learning in a Large Organic Chemistry Lecture Course
Roshini Ramachandran, Marlius C. Rodriguez
This study details the efforts taken in remotely teaching a large organic chemistry lecture course in the midst of the recent COVID-19 pandemic. The course lectures were taught synchronously via Zoom and student feedback was gathered regarding effective teaching strategies and assessment tools in a remote course setting. The precourse and midcourse surveys also provided insight into challenges and time commitment issues that students are facing when learning in this new situation. We highlight the instructor’s experience combined with student perspectives to tackle this situation moving forward. We hope that this work can assist faculty in remotely teaching their chemistry courses, and contribute to the information that is being collected globally regarding remote learning in light of the recent events.
