A computer-assisted instructional (CAI) package, based on a conceptual change model, was developed to challenge student misconceptions of chemical equilibrium. The CAI package used simulation to create cognitive conflict in students and promote accommodation of their conceptions. Use of the package produced significant and lasting conceptual changes in Year 12 chemistry students in the Maldives.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
