Abstract

This paper investigates the role of learning pathway design in a web-based 360° virtual laboratory safety training. A linearly structured virtual laboratory safety training was designed and implemented. Student experiences with the linear learning pathway were compared with a previously implemented non-linear learning pathway. In the linear pathway, students complete the virtual laboratory tour in a predetermined order, while in a non-linear pathway the students can complete the virtual laboratory tour in any order. Student feedback was collected from over 900 students and the experiences from the linearly structured virtual laboratory were highly positive. Compared to the previously implemented non-linear learning pathway, the student feedback related to the learning experience improved significantly. The feedback also showed a difference between preferred learning styles, highlighting the importance of choosing the learning pathway based on the intended learning outcomes and offering different types of learning materials for different learners. Overall, the findings of this study indicate that the linearly structured virtual laboratory offers an effective and motivating learning environment for laboratory safety training.

利用线性学习路径设计加强 360∘虚拟实验室安全培训:学生体验的启示
本文研究了学习路径设计在基于网络的 360° 虚拟实验室安全培训中的作用。我们设计并实施了一个线性结构的虚拟实验室安全培训。学生在线性学习路径中的体验与之前实施的非线性学习路径进行了比较。在线性学习途径中,学生按照预先确定的顺序完成虚拟实验室参观,而在非线性学习途径中,学生可以按照任何顺序完成虚拟实验室参观。我们收集了 900 多名学生的反馈意见,他们对线性结构虚拟实验室的体验给予了高度评价。与之前实施的非线性学习路径相比,学生对学习体验的反馈明显改善。反馈还显示了不同学习风格之间的差异,突出了根据预期学习成果选择学习途径以及为不同学习者提供不同类型学习材料的重要性。总之,本研究的结果表明,线性结构的虚拟实验室为实验室安全培训提供了一个有效的、激励性的学习环境。

期刊介绍: Education for Chemical Engineers was launched in 2006 with a remit to publisheducation research papers, resource reviews and teaching and learning notes. ECE is targeted at chemical engineering academics and educators, discussing the ongoingchanges and development in chemical engineering education. This international title publishes papers from around the world, creating a global network of chemical engineering academics. Papers demonstrating how educational research results can be applied to chemical engineering education are particularly welcome, as are the accounts of research work that brings new perspectives to established principles, highlighting unsolved problems or indicating direction for future research relevant to chemical engineering education. Core topic areas: -Assessment- Accreditation- Curriculum development and transformation- Design- Diversity- Distance education-- E-learning Entrepreneurship programs- Industry-academic linkages- Benchmarking- Lifelong learning- Multidisciplinary programs- Outreach from kindergarten to high school programs- Student recruitment and retention and transition programs- New technology- Problem-based learning- Social responsibility and professionalism- Teamwork- Web-based learning
