The laboratory prompts are kept to about ½ page in length, introducing a problemor concept and tasking students to develop a hypothesis, design and conduct an experiment,analyze data, and discuss the implication of the results. A sample assignment is provided inAppendix B.

RubricThe original version of the oral presentation rubric for our laboratory course is shown inAppendix A. This is an example of a scoring guide rubric. There is narrative of expectations ofan excellent presentation, but there is no clear rationale for what separates “excellent” from“very good,” for example. This presents a clear drawback when it comes to inter-rater reliability,as each evaluator has their own opinion for the different standards.The original video presentation rubric is shown in Appendix B. Arguably this is not an effectiverubric. It could generously be categorized as a scoring guide rubric as well.One proposal was to move toward more of a check-box style rubric, as described in Stevens andLevi [2].

The statement “overall I rate this course asexcellent” received an average 4.6 on the same scale. Student comments reflect theirsense that the course was well designed “The experiments we did in class were a greatway to see the theory we discussed come true”; “It was a great way to connect what wewere learning to the everyday life of cooking.”.

Kate similarly sees success as being future-oriented but also brings attention to the process of becoming successful. To Kate, “success is a state function.” A state function means the path taken from A to B is independent of the route taken. Therefore, there are many paths to being successful.

appropriate equations and variables to solve problems from written material.  Transitivity and reversibility. Students are able to algebraically manipulate equations and to discern relationships between variables knowing that if A is taller than B, and B is taller than C, then A must be taller than C and that if Z = X+Y then Y=Z-X.  Conservation. Students can understand that certain characteristics can be conserved even in different forms so that logical relationships can be formulated. The content in classes on material and energy balances rely fundamentally on such conservation principles – although conservation of energy is much more complex for students who use concrete reasoning.

The difficultyin implementing SBL is that the technique does not fit well within a typical one-hour persession class structure.In order to make it possible to implement SBL asynchronously and online, we haveintegrated ChemProV with OSBLE (Online Studio-Based Learning Environment), anonline learning management environment developed in prior research. 15 OSBLE supportsthree user interfaces: (a) student; (b) instructor; and (c) moderator.
