Investigating the Role of Educational Technology in Teaching Spectroscopy

Thesis Abstract

This research project aims to investigate the role of educational technology in teaching spectroscopy in chemistry education. Spectroscopy is a fundamental technique used in the analysis of chemical compounds and plays a crucial role in various scientific and industrial applications. The project will explore the effectiveness of integrating educational technology, such as interactive simulations, virtual spectrometers, and digital spectroscopy tools, in enhancing student understanding and engagement with spectroscopic principles. The study will also assess the impact of educational technology on students' ability to interpret spectroscopic data and apply spectroscopic techniques in real-world contexts. The findings of this research will provide valuable insights into the potential benefits of educational technology in teaching spectroscopy and contribute to the development of innovative instructional approaches in chemistry education.
