He was born in 1871 and went to the public schools of his parish at a time when the entire southern part of the nation was recovering from the devasta­ tion of the Civil War. When he began his professional work/ the general public was not vitally interested in education. To men like Mr. Roy and other of his colleagues fell the important task of selling the public on the benefits of education. As an educator, Mr. Roy had experience in most facets of school work: he was a classroom teacher in a private school, an instructor in college, the principal of a secondary school, the superintendent of a parish school system, and president of a state college. Mr. Roy was responsible for bringing many worthwhile innovative

    INFORMATION TO USERS This was produced from a copy of a document sent to us for microfilming. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or “target” for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is “Missing Page(s)”. If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting through an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure you of complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark it is an indication that the Him inspector noticed either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, or duplicate copy. Unless we meant to delete copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed, you will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part of the material being photo­ graphed the photographer has followed a definite method in “sectioning” the material. It is customary to begin Hlming at the upper left hand comer of a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. If necessary, sectioning is continued again—beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. For any illustrations that cannot be reproduced satisfactorily by xerography, photographic prints can be purchased at additional cost and tipped into your xerographic copy.

A Literature Review Meiai Chen 1 , Eila Jeronen 2 and Anming Wang 3,* 1 School of Tourism & Health, Zhejiang A&F University, Hangzhou 311300, China; [email protected] 2 Department of Educational Sciences and Teacher Education, University of Oulu, FI-90014 Oulu, Finland; eila.jeronen@oulu.fi 3 College of Materials, Chemistry and Chemical Engineering, Hangzhou Normal University, Hangzhou 311121, China * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 11 September 2020; Accepted: 24 October 2020; Published: 27 October 2020 Abstract: In this qualitative study, we aim to identify suitable pedagogical approaches to teaching and learning green chemistry among college students and preservice teachers by examining the teaching methods that have been used to promote green chemistry education (GCE) and how these methods have supported green chemistry learning (GCL). We found 45 articles published in peer-reviewed scientific journals since 2000 that specifically described teaching methods for GCE. The content of the articles was analyzed based on the categories of the teaching methods used and the revised version of Bloom’s taxonomy. Among the selected articles, collaborative and interdisciplinary learning, and problem-based learning were utilized in 38 and 35 articles, respectively. These were the most frequently used teaching methods, alongside a general combination of multiple teaching methods and teacher presentations. Developing collaborative and interdisciplinary learning skills, techniques for increasing environmental awareness, problem-centered learning skills, and systems thinking skills featuring the teaching methods were seen to promote GCL in 44, 40, 34, and 29 articles, respectively.

PUB DATE 1999-09-00 NOTE 10p.; Paper presented at the History, Philosophy and Science Teaching Conference (5th, Pavia, Italy, September, 1999). PUB TYPE Opinion Papers (120) Speeches/Meeting Papers (150) EDRS PRICE MF01/PC01 Plus Postage. DESCRIPTORS *Chemistry; Educational Change; Foreign Countries; Higher Education; *Philosophy; Science Curriculum; *Science Education; *Science Education History; *Science History; Scientific Principles; Secondary Education; Teaching Methods ABSTRACT Traditional applications of history and philosophy of science in chemistry education have concentrated on the teaching and learning of "history of chemistry". This paper considers the recent emergence of "philosophy of chemistry" as a distinct field and explores the implications of philosophy of chemistry for chemistry education in the context of teaching and learning chemical models. This paper calls for preventing the mutually exclusive development of chemistry education and philosophy of chemistry, and argues that research in chemistry education should strive to learn from the mistakes that resulted when early developments in science education were made separate from advances in philosophy of science.

  • Models and Modelling in Chemistry Education in the Higher Medical Education System Assos
    Science & Research MODELS AND MODELLING IN CHEMISTRY EDUCATION IN THE HIGHER MEDICAL EDUCATION SYSTEM ASSOS. PROF. DR. V. HADZHIILIEV Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry, Medical Faculty, Trakia University - Stara Zagora, Bulgaria; [email protected] Abstract: The objective of this paper is to consider the "classical" forms of training in higher medical school and try to give a new reading of the organizational forms of training, updated by the modern requirements addressed to the higher education institutions in Bulgaria, after adoption of the credit accumulation and transfer system. The compulsory training, which meets the requirements of the MILC, shall be conditionally made module A. Under this module, students attend both forms of training – lectures and practical exercises. The second group of activities builds on the knowledge and skills to be included in module C. This activity is built only on a type A activity already carried out, including free-elective and optional preparation in Chemistry. The formation of scientific competencies is carried out through direct scientific work, including literature review, searching for a suitable methodology for work, drawing up an experimental plan, reporting and analyzing the results of a real experiment (module C). This activity builds on the previous two and includes elements of reproduction and creativity. Keywords: medical pedagogy, models, modelling. Models and modelling. The word "model" has a Latin origin, derived from "modus", which means image, measure, ability. The initial use is in construction (architecture) to denote different types of samples. Its use in Mathematics began after the creation of Analytic geometry by Descartes and Fermat. In Natural sciences (Biology, Chemistry and Physics), the term "model" began to be used to refer to the object a particular theory refers to or it describes.
