Academic performance improved with chemistry study website

Posted Date: 12/12/2011
With a desire to create a favorable learning environment for students, help them access subject knowledge in a natural and vivid way, and provide an environment for teachers and students to interact and exchange and for the colleagues to learn about each other’s experience in teaching chemistry subject, the "chemistry learning at home" website has been created to achieve these aims. Success in creating this chemistry website has brought to teacher Bach Thanh Lua from Thống Nhất A High School (Trang Bom district) the third prize of the Dong Nai province 15th technology creativity contest 2010.

 

The main interface of site http://hochoaonha.net/

After success in Dong Nai province technology creativity contest 2010 organized by Dong Nai Department of Science and Technology, many teachers and students interested in chemistry have visited the website http://hochoaonha.net/.

Many students consider it to be their close friends to practice after class. Student Le Viet Anh from  Tam Hoa High School (Bien Hoa city) said, “I found out this website when looking for guidelines for the SO2 preparation experiment. I not only found out how to solve my exercises, but also figure out a lot of benefits in this self-study site for chemistry subject. In addition to knowledge reinforcement via theory and practical exercises, there are many videos tutoring in chemistry experiments in this site, which is very helpful for chemistry subject because we do not have a lot of time for practice at school; therefore, we have not fully understood many lessons. Besides making friends with the knowledge on the web, he also introduced it to his friends to study on this site.

The main contents of the website designed by teacher Lua are e-lectures, experiment videos, experiment simulations, multiple-choice questions, college and university entrance exams and exams of grade 10, 11 and 12. What counts is that exams have been systemized, distributed and arranged in accordance with the program of Ministry of Education and Training. Thus search for knowledge for each topic is very easy.

Also, in each content, students and the web visitors can exchange directly in that section or after online lectures to reinforce the lesson, find the answer to problems and solve them at the section that they are studying. Some other sections of the website help the learning, researching, exchanging, sharing of students is the easiest, fastest, most convenient and effective.

Home chemistry solution received the third prize in the 15th Dong Nai technology creativity contest.

"Its is an era of information technology boom; internet is not strange to everyone; there are many websites offering students some of the questions and arranging homework for knowledge reinforcement; however, most websites just provide one-way information, have no feedback, so students can just see or download them, but do not know whether they solve correctly or not, and it is also difficult for them to communicate with teachers and others", teacher Bach Thanh said.

 The idea of ​​the teacher when setting up this website is to create multi-dimensional interactions between visitors accessing simultaneously.

 In the 15th Dong Nai "Technology Creativity Contest", teacher Lua’s the initiative to build the chemistry study website was highly appreciated. Its application in the situation that information has been so developed and internet is popular in every home is too easy. Learning in this site also saves a lot of time, effort and cost for extra study, as well as a lot of time for teachers in searching for materials and teaching experience.

 In addition, at this site, the knowledge that the authors provide sticks to general programs approved by the Ministry of Education and Training in various spheres such as e-lectures, multiple choice questions, news, events, chemistry experiments, exercises, thus suitable for average students and students who want to try quite difficult exercises.
