The required abrupt move to an online platform for education has caused tremendous challenges for educational systems in general and specifically also in the chemical sciences. In Lebanon particularly, the COVID-19 pandemic raked havoc on a country entrenched in popular uprising and riddled by an economic collapse observing unprecedented devaluation of the national currency. In this situation, the move to online education had caused tremendous stress and burden for faculty and students raising the need to develop mitigation strategies by embracing reduction in material and a careful consideration of students’ mental health. This commentary presents the author’s experience of delivering undergraduate Organic Chemistry courses at the American University of Beirut (AUB) through the COVID-19 pandemic, during the spring and summer 2020 semesters. While the author’s pre-recorded lectures of Organic Chemistry I were vital to the online delivery of course material, this commentary particularly highlights the inclusion of supplementary online assignments that include: videos to illustrate a covered organic chemistry concept, instructional videos to explain a multiple choice question (MCQ) of their creation, a cartoon to exemplify an organic chemistry concept, a cartoon to reflect on studying organic chemistry during the COVID-19 pandemic and a group assignment that allowed students to assume social responsibility.","PeriodicalId":93370,"journal":{"name":"Science journal of education","volume":"8 1","pages":"133"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-11-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45928111","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Nevertheless, its implementation may be limited by the lack of material, instrument and above all the risk involved in doing so in the laboratory. Not only because of the cost of the reagents, but also because of the safety of the students in the classroom. That is why the use of simple micro-scale experiments turns out to be a benefit for the teaching of chemistry to high school students. Methods: Micro-scale practices also facilitate the implantation of constructivist laboratory practices, presented as small investigations, displacing traditional laboratory practices. The design of practices from a constructivist approach allows working all or some aspects of the scientific method. A constructivist methodology will increase the student’s interest in the subject and bring them closer to the scientific method, which will provoke the development of their observation capacity, the ability to make hypotheses, the skill in the design of experimental setups, discussing results, drawing conclusions and relating empirical data to theoretical principles. In contrast, traditional practices are usually prescription-type practices completely lack the scientific method. Since there are numerous difficulties in implementing practices with a constructivist methodology, both methods may be considered according to the space, time, and materials possibilities. Conclusion: The micro-scale experiments is useful for different reasons: reduces chemical use by promoting waste reduction of the source, save money, improves safety, may be carry out in class and sometimes at home, decreases experiment time and student carry out the experiments by themselves which is important for a significant learning.","PeriodicalId":93370,"journal":{"name":"Science journal of education","volume":"8 1","pages":"128"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-09-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45299050","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

On the one hand, it is found that some enterprises and employers are reduce the number of posts and personnel so as to reduce the input cost of human resources, and reduce unnecessary production links so as to avoid invalid production costs, so as to improve work efficiency. On the other hand, they are in urgent need of high-level technical and technical talents who can fight when they come. The graduates of higher vocational colleges were never favored by employers, and their orientation and direction were unclear.

Despite its centrality to career success, mentoring is not very well institutionalized and is often de-prioritized by university departments. In addition, contemporary mentoring focuses mainly on the dyadic mentor-mentee relationship, while largely neglecting other alternative forms. Based off of these facts, the PI created a new initiative, the Mentoring Talks, wherein group mentoring is provided for students and faculty at the American University of Beirut (AUB). The creation and implementation of this initiation at the AUB was designed specifically based on documented educational theory. Furthermore, speakers at said talks stem from a wide range of occupations, yet nevertheless share one aspect in common; their perseverance in the face of adversity. Seminal review papers highlight key qualities of effect group mentoring; these characteristics are detailed in this commentary, as well as an outline of how each one is actualized by the Mentoring Talks initiative. These attributes include providing an equitable environment for mentoring, kindling an atmosphere of social support, emphasizing mentee self-valuation and expanding mentees’ networking opportunities. It is the intention of the PI that this initiative will inspire similar lectureships in universities across the world, in order to further strengthen institutional mentoring and ultimately help students achieve career and life success. Special consideration is also given to the challenges of providing group mentoring during the COVID-19 pandemic, focusing on the shift from in-person to digital methods of communication and lectureship.","PeriodicalId":93370,"journal":{"name":"Science journal of education","volume":"8 1","pages":"114"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-09-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45433003","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As the Classroom Response System (CRS) is widely used in interactive teaching environments to attract students by asking questions. This paper takes electromagnetism of introductory physics as an example to study the teaching mode of review seminar based on CRS. Focusing on the necessity of review seminar based on CRS, the teaching efficiency as well as the stability of students' learning effect under this teaching mode, this paper qualitatively discusses the necessity and teaching efficiency of review seminar based on CRS, and quantifies the learning effect of students under this mode from the correct transformation of students' concept and its stability. The results show that the teaching model of seminar based on CRS is suitable for the teaching of problem sets in introductory and has high teaching efficiency. Most of the students have the right change of physics concept after the discussion with their peers, and have stable learning gain. At the end of the paper, we discuss the shortcomings of the research and looks forward to the future research direction.","PeriodicalId":93370,"journal":{"name":"Science journal of education","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-09-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47002417","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
