Development of Teaching and Learning Mobile Application for Titration using Augmented Reality
Grant Name
Applied Learning and Innovation Grant (ALIGN)Abstract
As the cohort size increases as the year go by, it is becoming more difficult to deliver instructions effectively to large class size. The recent COVID-19 pandemic and safe distancing measures have made it even more challenging and also had affected the teaching and learning processes. Flipped classrooms are commonly being used to impart basic concepts and prepare students for upcoming lectures. Especially for year one students, there is a need for an interactive, engaging, and stimulating framework for a constructive understanding of concepts.
We aim to develop a teaching and learning mobile application using Augmented Reality (AR) that allow overlaying content-specific media into the real world. This can be made available through the different smart devices that make the content accessible anytime, anywhere. This project is designed with the students of the Chemical Engineering Programme in mind. We propose to utilize AR to stimulate student interest in analytical chemistry and deepen their understanding of different types of titrations. Upon using this app, students will be able to acquire titration knowledge and techniques at the comfort of their mobile devices with minimal use of chemicals and apparatus, thereby minimizing the impact of limitations to their learning journey due to safety incidents and chemical disposal.
