all survey items.The item prompts are presented in groups so that the text fits better on the pages. The groupingalso reveals patterns in prompts. Although presented in groups, the prompts are given in the orderpresented to the survey takers. Note that Tables 10, 11, and 12 contain preamble text in the tablecaptions. The preambles were presented as an introduction to the respective group of Likert scaleitems.The tables of prompts have the same column headings. The first column is “Q #”, which is theitem label assigned by the Qualtrics software. Those item labels are also tags for identifying andselecting items in the R code used for statistical analysis, but otherwise the item label is notsignificant. The second column labeled “Rev.” is a 1

to design examples andexercises that meet the specific needs of each classroom. In order to better understand thedifferences between classrooms, students from two different classrooms (named“Classroom 1” and “Classroom 2”) were submitted to the same following question duringan electrochemistry lesson:Consider the following overall reaction for a battery: 2 Ag+ + Sn → 2 Ag + Sn2+What is the reaction quotient (Q) for this redox process?a) [Sn2+].[Ag]2/[Ag+]2.[Sn] b) [Sn2+]/2[Ag+]c) [Sn2+]/[Ag+]2 d) [Ag+]2/[Sn2+]The correct answer to the question above is letter c): Q = [Ag+]2/[Sn2+].Although it seems to be a very easy question, is was possible to

provided them in the online videos. In addition,there was time for live student presentation and group discussions with a Q & A on thepresentations. Groups would meet not only on their own out of class to complete a courseassignment, but additionally in-class to apply the concepts they learned in the online modules.For example, groups would spend time on plan reading exercises and the instructor was able tospend time providing feedback to each group.4.3 Data gathering and analysis. Data was gathered through a reflective journal kept by theinstructor and a survey administered quarter into the semester and towards the end (AppendixA). 4.3.a Instructor notes: Given the new approach to teaching the instructor kept weeklynotes about the
