摘要
系统思维是理解复杂系统中动态相互作用的重要技能。近年来,越来越多的人认识到,化学教育需要系统思维来展示概念之间的相互联系,鼓励学生参与,并将化学学习与全球可持续性挑战和解决方案联系起来。系统映射,使用诸如面向系统的概念图扩展(SOCMEs)之类的工具,是理解化学中涉及的系统的一个重要方面,但是没有易于使用的工具来创建动态的SOCMEs,特别是在教育环境中。在国王科学可视化中心(KCVS.ca),我们创建了SOCKit (SOCME Online Construction Kit),这是一个交互式学习工具,用于使用力导向图动态创建SOCME。socckit被设计成直观和移动友好的,并且可以很容易地创建、查看、修改和共享socme,以更好地理解系统并开发系统思维工具箱。
Systems thinking is an important skillset for understanding dynamic interactions in complex systems. In recent years, there has been a growing recognition that systems thinking is needed in chemistry education to show the interconnection of concepts, to encourage student engagement and to connect learning of chemistry to global sustainability challenges and solutions. Systems mapping, using tools such as Systems-Oriented Concept Map Extensions (SOCMEs), is an important aspect of understanding the systems involved in chemistry, but there are no easy-to-use tools for creating dynamic SOCMEs, especially in educational contexts. At the King’s Centre for Visualization in Science (KCVS.ca), we have created SOCKit (SOCME Online Construction Kit), an interactive learning tool for dynamically creating SOCMEs using force-directed graphs. SOCKit has been designed to be intuitive and mobile-friendly, and can easily create, view, modify, and share SOCMEs to better understand systems and develop a systems thinking toolbox.
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.
