E-LEARNING GRANULARITY FOR A CHEMICAL REACTIVITY LEARNING OBJECTS

Abstract

The present trends in education encourage teachers to design and implement Learning Objects (LOs) to be offered as services for their courses on Open Molecular Science Cloud (OMSC) (see http://services.chm.unipg.it/ojs/index.php/virtlcomm/article/view/191). In our approach we adopt, first, an easy to use technology to design, produce and modify in full autonomy LOs at a proper level of granularity in a not-specifically equipped environment and then prepare their version for sharing with other teachers of the field within the European Chemistry Thematic Network (ECTN) (http://ectn.eu/) and the Theoretical Chemistry and Computational Modelling (TCCM) Master (https://tccm.qui.uam.es/) through collaborative development. Only after a certain period of collaborative development, the revised version of the LOs is proposed for approval by the appropriate expert board in order to make them available for general use. [...]
