Description

As a result of the sudden nationwide lockdowns that occurred in March of 2020, many universities rapidly shifted to remote instruction. This complete and rapid transformation of the education system is one that is historically unparalleled. Professors and instructors were forced to adapt their lessons and exams to an online format within a matter of weeks (Rupnow et al., 2020). Students were forced to adjust to a remote learning environment, which was accompanied by the challenges of adopting new learning strategies in an environment isolated from peers and professors (Simon et al., 2020). While many classes have now shifted back to the traditional classroom environment, there are still many classes that are offered online at most institutions. In the current study, we interviewed general chemistry students who had recent experience with both in-person and remote learning in order to identify, from the students’ perspectives, how instruction can be modified to support meaningful learning and engagement in their future chemistry classes, whatever their format (Closs et al., 2021).
