Abstract

Chemistry education at the graduate level and beyond faces the formidable challenge of a boundless and constantly expanding frontier of knowledge on many fronts. While modern learners have an increasingly broad range of resources available at their disposal (including open access text-based references, online videos, training problems, and other digital learning materials), there are comparatively fewer such materials aimed at the highest levels of study. With the goal of producing widely accessible graduate-level learning content, we created a community-based approach to online course design that is easily digestible to meet the expectations of modern learners. Herein, we report the development of an open access Advanced Organic Chemistry video-based online course and several other specialized minicourses using the Synthesis Workshop YouTube channel.

重新构想高等化学教育：面向现代学习者的基于社区的课程设计方法

研究生及以上阶段的化学教育面临着许多前沿知识不断扩展的巨大挑战。虽然现代学习者有越来越广泛的资源可供他们使用（包括开放获取的基于文本的参考资料、在线视频、培训问题和其他数字学习材料），但针对最高水平学习的材料相对较少。为了生产广泛访问的研究生水平的学习内容，我们创建了一个基于社区的在线课程设计方法，易于理解，以满足现代学习者的期望。在此，我们报告了一个开放获取的基于视频的高级有机化学在线课程和几个其他专业迷你课程的开发，这些课程使用合成车间YouTube频道。

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.
