Abstract
Laboratory safety is an important issue in academic settings. To address the challenge of effectively teaching lab safety, we developed an educational card game titled Stocked. This game incorporates gamification elements to enhance student engagement and familiarity with common laboratory safety items and equipment. This paper outlines the game’s development and preliminary evaluation. A survey was conducted to gain feedback from the players, and a SWOT analysis was performed. Players found Stocked to be a fun, fast-paced, and engaging game.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Chemical Education is the official journal of the Division of Chemical Education of the American Chemical Society, co-published with the American Chemical Society Publications Division. Launched in 1924, the Journal of Chemical Education is the world’s premier chemical education journal. The Journal publishes peer-reviewed articles and related information as a resource to those in the field of chemical education and to those institutions that serve them. JCE typically addresses chemical content, activities, laboratory experiments, instructional methods, and pedagogies. The Journal serves as a means of communication among people across the world who are interested in the teaching and learning of chemistry. This includes instructors of chemistry from middle school through graduate school, professional staff who support these teaching activities, as well as some scientists in commerce, industry, and government.
