Scaling-Up of Higher-Order Cognitive Skills-Oriented College Chemistry Teaching: An Action-Oriented Research.
Zoller, Uri
Journal of Research in Science Teaching, v36 n5 p583-96 May 1999
Presents an action-oriented research account of higher-order cognitive skills (HOCS)-oriented teaching of organic chemistry to freshman and sophomore science majors in small and large classes at a relatively small and large university respectively. Finds that inquiry-oriented class discussions, students' active involvement in the learning process, and HOCS-type examinations can be successfully applied in both small and large classes. Contains 50 references. (Author/WRM)
