Show Abstract ( 13 )
Conceptual understanding is an important topic in scientific education research. The confusion appeared in definition of conceptual understanding will make it difficult for teachers to effectively guide and promote understanding in teaching. Generative learning theory is a progressive theory that explains student learning based on information processing theory. From this perspective,it analyzes how conceptual understanding generated and how differences in conceptual understanding made,providing a scientific basis for promoting concept understanding in chemistry teaching.

Show Abstract ( 12 )
The project focuses on the theme of “self made safety mining lamp”, integrating relevant content from history, physics, and other courses, leading students to retrace the path of scientist David. Firstly, the historical issue of gas explosions in mines in the 18th century is presented, guiding students to analyze the causes of explosions and explore the conditions of explosions using the idea of controlling variables. Then, students are inspired to design devices to collect hydrogen gas of different concentrations, measure the explosion limit of combustible gas hydrogen gas, and finally make safety lamps to test their explosion-proof effect. In the process of solving the real problem of mine explosion prevention, students learn and apply the knowledge of explosion, deepen their understanding of concepts, enhance their scientific exploration and practical abilities, and cultivate a scientific spirit of daring to be the first, rigorous and realistic, and daring to explore.

Show Abstract ( 13 )
Writing lesson papers for secondary school chemistry teachers is an important requirement for their professional development,but there are many practical difficulties. To promote chemistry teachers’ writing ability of lesson paper,a district-level teachers’ continuing education course was developed using Liwan District,Guangzhou City,Guangdong Province as a practical base,with “acquaintances and facts” as the entry point and “Lesson Paper Writing Scaffold” (LPWS) as the tool. Participating teachers had a positive attitude towards the course. Middle school teachers had more significant positive attitudes towards organizational quality and usefulness of course than high school teachers. There was no significant difference in course acceptance attitudes among teachers with different professional titles. The application of Lesson Paper Writing Scaffold was the core factor for achieving teaching effectiveness in the course. Several suggestions for optimizing course design and practice in the future were given.

Status of Achievement Emotions in Chemistry Among First-Year Senior High School Students Who Have Opted for Chemistry Based on Latent Profile Analysis

LIU Yu-Rong, SUN Hao-Ran, LI Meng
Chinese Journal of Chemical Education. 2025, 46 (7): 40-45. ;  doi: 10.13884/j.1003-3807hxjy.2024040094
Full Text: PDF (1171KB) ( 52 )
Show Abstract ( 11 )
Chemistry achievement emotion is a critical non-cognitive factor, referring to the direct emotional experience of individuals in chemistry learning activities. Utilizing the achievement emotions scale and the chemistry self-efficacy scale, latent profile analysis was employed to examine the types of achievement emotions among first-year high school chemistry students opting for the subject. The analysis identified a two-category model as optimal: the high positive-low negative group and the mixed emotions group. Utilizing the robust three-step (R3STEP) method and BCH approach to establish a regression mixture model, it was found that male students were more likely to be categorized into the high positive-low negative group compared to females; furthermore, students with higher chemistry self-efficacy were also more likely to fall into the high positive-low negative group. Students in the high positive-low negative group exhibited significantly higher chemistry academic achievement compared to those in the mixed emotions group. Based on this, specific teaching strategies had been proposed for different emotional groups to develop students’ core competencies in chemistry.

Show Abstract ( 9 )
In this paper, soap was made from waste kitchen oil. Compared with the process flow introduced in the textbook, the experimental process was refined, which was more conducive to life, and the optimal experimental conditions were explored to improve the production efficiency. The optimized experimental results showed that the mixed acid with a ratio of citric acid to phosphoric acid of 1∶1 was added to the kitchen waste oil for degumming treatment, and then the saponification was carried out at a temperature of 60 ℃ and a sodium hydroxide concentration of 40%. The soap produced under this condition had the best decontamination effect and less time, only about 25 minutes were needed to remove the debonding time. This program would be promoted and implemented in high schools, so that students could feel the value of chemistry and the practical significance of “turning waste into treasure” in practical activities, and then cultivated students’ scientific inquiry ability and innovation awareness.

Starting from the oxidizing properties comparison between concentrated nitric acid and dilute nitric acid in the college entrance examination questions, this paper expounded the fallacy of the current oxidizing property comparison. Starting from the concept of oxidability, taking the oxidability of nitric acid as an example, the evidence of oxidation strength comparison was sought from three aspects: structure, property and electrode potential. Through the comparison of the oxidizing strength of the same substance by changing conditions (concentration, pH, etc.), the idea of oxidation (reduction) properties comparison and its influence on redox reaction were explored from qualitative to quantitative.

Show Abstract ( 11 )
By heating aqueous solutions of ammonium chloride and sodium bicarbonate of different concentrations, qualitative and quantitative analysis and theoretical calculations were used to explore their decomposition in aqueous solutions. In quantitative analysis, chemical precipitation method was used to calculate the decomposition rate of substances in real experiment situations, improving accuracy. The study showed that both ammonium chloride and sodium bicarbonate in the solution decomposed when heated with the inner flame of an alcohol lamp. The decomposition rate showed an increasing trend as the solution concentration increased. At the same temperature and concentration, and heated for the same time, the decomposition rate of ammonium chloride in the solution was lower than that of sodium bicarbonate. The research results had certain implications for the heating research of other ammonium salts and weak acid salts in aqueous solutions.

After the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War in 1931,in order to adapt to the domestic situation,the Ministry of Education held a chemistry seminar and proposed to increase the content of national defense chemistry in the secondary chemistry curriculum at that time. After the meeting,the national defense chemistry received general attention in China,and the chemistry textbooks of secondary education began to add chapters related to national defense chemistry. This paper systematically sorted out the chemistry textbooks for secondary education in the Republic of China period,conducted a systematic study on the content of defense chemistry in 25 kinds of middle school chemistry textbooks,analyzed the characteristics of the content of defense chemistry in the textbooks with the knowledge of gas,gas defense,gunpowder,combustion agent and fume agent as the core,and analyzed the characteristics of the exercises in this part after class. It provided useful reference and enlightenment for the integration of national defense education into the chemistry curriculum of secondary education.
