Abell, Timothy N.; Sevian, Hannah – Journal of Chemical Education, 2021
Teaching chemistry as a practice rather than as a mere collection of facts demands that teachers modify their practices, particularly their approach to formative assessment (FA). In this study, we investigated how teachers' FA practices changed as a result of their participation in a professional development program designed with a Chemical…

Caushi, Klaudja; Sevian, Hannah; Talanquer, Vicente – Journal of Chemical Education, 2021
Chemical scientists and engineers are interested in controlling chemical processes to attain specific goals, from synthesizing a desired substance to hindering a particular transformation. Nevertheless, students typically have few opportunities to develop the understandings and practices that are required to effectively engage in chemical control.…

Abell, Timothy N.; Sevian, Hannah – Journal of Chemical Education, 2020
The effective use of formative assessment (FA) has been demonstrated to confer positive impacts on student learning. To understand why and how FA works, it is necessary to characterize teachers' FA practices, but because both teaching practice and learning depend on the nature of the discipline, there are disciplinary aspects to examining this.…

Murray, Stephanie A.; Huie, Robert; Lewis, Rebecca; Balicki, Scott; Clinchot, Michael; Banks, Gregory; Talanquer, Vicente; Sevian, Hannah – Journal of Chemical Education, 2020
Formative assessment is an important component of teaching as it enables teachers to foster student learning by uncovering, interpreting, and advancing student thinking. In this work, we sought to characterize how experienced chemistry teachers notice and interpret student thinking shown in written work, and how they respond to what they learn…

Keen, Clarissa; Couture, Steven; El Meseh, Nayer Abd; Sevian, Hannah – Journal of Chemical Education, 2020
Electrochemistry is omnipresent in our lives, but students often do not recognize that the electrochemistry they learn in general chemistry happens in the batteries on which we depend. Students also may not recognize that they have the power to make greener choices about batteries using their knowledge of chemistry. This 4 h general chemistry…

Karch, Jessica M.; Valles, Josibel C. García; Sevian, Hannah – Journal of Chemical Education, 2019
When characterizing students' item-solving strategies, methods such as interviews and think-aloud protocols are often used. However, these measures provide limited information about sub-or preconscious signals and cognitive processes that also affect students' item-solving strategies and abilities. A growing number of researchers in chemical…
