Technology is ubiquitous:
Laptops, Mobile, Tablets, Wearables, Home, etc
Information has become social:
Facebook, LinkedIn, Google, etc
Today’s kids expect it, and if it’s not an app or on a
website somewhere then it’s not worth knowing.
Need to engage students in a way that feels
modern yet natural.
Software is Everywhere

The way that students engage with science is static and
dated.
This affects their
perspective.
Which affects how
they learn.
It also affects how
they interact with
their professors.
Ultimately, it leads to an overall negative experience.
And Yet…

Today’s research is
possible due to
yesterday’s
discoveries.
We are constantly
losing valuable
data.
Imagine the overall
cost of this data
loss.

A modern learning environment that delivers information
how students are accustomed to consuming it.
A platform that addresses the deficiencies in today’s
research labs and teaches future researchers the skills and
habits that will
empower them.
New technologies that
make today’s science
curriculum relevant
and exciting.
We Need:

So What Can We Do To Create A Better Learning Environment?

• Create an online collaborative platform for science where students can absorb material and upload their own data.
• Coordination by Design Model research workflows
Integrate across disciplines
Make science immediate and social
Provide an additional medium of communication
• We created an environment that will feel natural to students familiar with apps, cloud, social.
Software as a Service (Saas)

Let’s bring modern technologies that enhance student
engagement into the classroom.
Science can be interesting, relevant & cool.
Start In The Classroom

ChemDraw Integration
There is a ChemDraw element that allows for drawing reaction schemes, mechanisms and products
![Page 18: Elements™ of Science Education - UIS · 2014. 3. 26. · Pilot: Dr. Layne Morsch University of Illinois Springfield Future opportunities Agenda. 3 Technology is ubiquitous: Laptops,](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022071512/61332b57dfd10f4dd73aea18/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Lab Procedure
Students can write their detailed lab procedure just as they would in a paper lab notebook
![Page 19: Elements™ of Science Education - UIS · 2014. 3. 26. · Pilot: Dr. Layne Morsch University of Illinois Springfield Future opportunities Agenda. 3 Technology is ubiquitous: Laptops,](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022071512/61332b57dfd10f4dd73aea18/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Incorporate Spectra into the Notebook
Pdf files of Spectra can be uploaded into the notebook
Elements windows can be arranged full width or shared
![Page 20: Elements™ of Science Education - UIS · 2014. 3. 26. · Pilot: Dr. Layne Morsch University of Illinois Springfield Future opportunities Agenda. 3 Technology is ubiquitous: Laptops,](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022071512/61332b57dfd10f4dd73aea18/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Incorporate Spreadsheets into the Notebook
Excel spreadsheets can be uploaded into the notebook
![Page 21: Elements™ of Science Education - UIS · 2014. 3. 26. · Pilot: Dr. Layne Morsch University of Illinois Springfield Future opportunities Agenda. 3 Technology is ubiquitous: Laptops,](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022071512/61332b57dfd10f4dd73aea18/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Sharing Experiments and Notebooks
Collaborators can be invited to share a single experiment or an entire notebook
Permissions for each collaborator can be set
![Page 22: Elements™ of Science Education - UIS · 2014. 3. 26. · Pilot: Dr. Layne Morsch University of Illinois Springfield Future opportunities Agenda. 3 Technology is ubiquitous: Laptops,](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022071512/61332b57dfd10f4dd73aea18/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Pilot Testing
Students have begun using Elements in place of their carbonless copy lab notebooks
Instructor shares a template, which students can use to create their experiment
All student experiments are created in a shared folder – allowing for grading
![Page 23: Elements™ of Science Education - UIS · 2014. 3. 26. · Pilot: Dr. Layne Morsch University of Illinois Springfield Future opportunities Agenda. 3 Technology is ubiquitous: Laptops,](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022071512/61332b57dfd10f4dd73aea18/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Teaching Advantages Students cannot lose their lab notebook
Students cannot “forget” to turn in lab
Students cannot claim to have completed lab if not finished
Students can be asked to create and organize their own experiment
Integration of pictures (TLC, product crystals) and spectra into lab notebook
![Page 24: Elements™ of Science Education - UIS · 2014. 3. 26. · Pilot: Dr. Layne Morsch University of Illinois Springfield Future opportunities Agenda. 3 Technology is ubiquitous: Laptops,](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022071512/61332b57dfd10f4dd73aea18/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Ideas for Future Development Spreadsheet, graphing incorporation
Multiple text Elements usable for a variety of uses– Questions to be answered
– Adding a gradable rubric
– Student analysis of spectral peaks
Multiple ChemDraw Elements– Reaction scheme
– Mechanisms
– Product structure along with spectra
– Apparatus drawing templates
