Sharma, R. K.; Yadav, Subham; Gupta, Radhika; Arora, Gunjan – Journal of Chemical Education, 2019
Systems thinking is highly desirable for re-imagining chemistry education, which will help in the development of an integrated and sustainable approach that takes into account the interdependence of a system under study with other components of the ecosystem rather than practicing a fragmented approach. Thus, to develop a systems' perspective into…
