Abstract

Chemistry is not an easy subject to learn. Many people regard chemistry as being too hard, too abstract, too mathematical, and only for very bright students. As a result, a negative attitude has developed about chemistry with students claiming chemistry is boring. Besides, most of the chemical concepts articulated by macroscopic, microscopic, and symbolic. This led to conflict and confusion in learning chemistry. Thus, the purpose of this project is to develop a web based learning material on Chemistry Form 4 based on Integrated Curriculum for Secondary Schools (KBSM) syllabuses. This website enables users to learn on their own about the topic of Acids and Bases. Constructivism theory and inquiry based learning approach were integrated in the development of this website. The main subtopics contain in the website are “Concept and Chemical Properties of Acids and Bases”, “Role of Water to Show the Properties of Acids and Alkalis” and “Strength of Acids and Alkalis”. This website was developed using Macromedia Dreamweaver 8 as the main platform whereas Macromedia Flash 8, Adobe Photoshop CS2 as well as Sound Forge 7 were used as supportive software. Finally, it is hoped that this website will become as a reference for students to learn this subtopic and to overcome their misconception about Acids and Bases. Other than that, this website is also useful for teachers and other people to get information more about Acids and Bases.

通过网站查询学习酸碱知识

化学不是一门容易学的学科。许多人认为化学太难，太抽象，太数学化，只适合非常聪明的学生。因此，学生们对化学产生了消极的态度，认为化学很无聊。此外，大多数化学概念是通过宏观、微观和符号来表达的。这导致了学习化学的冲突和困惑。因此，这个项目的目的是开发一个基于中学综合课程(KBSM)教学大纲的基于网络的化学中四学习材料。本网站使用户能够自行学习有关酸和碱的主题。本网站的开发融合了建构主义理论和研究性学习方法。网站上包含的主要子主题是“酸和碱的概念和化学性质”、“水在显示酸和碱性质中的作用”和“酸和碱的强度”。本网站以Macromedia Dreamweaver 8为主要平台，以Macromedia Flash 8、Adobe Photoshop CS2、Sound Forge 7为辅助软件进行开发。最后，希望本网站能成为同学们学习这一副题的参考，克服对酸碱的误解。除此之外，这个网站对教师和其他人获取更多关于酸和碱的信息也很有用。
