Main steps I point out the existence of Chimactiv and explain its relevance for the present lab session I point the students to the appropriate Chimactiv ressources I encourage the students to use Chimactiv when preparing their written responses
What I do
In preparation for the session, either live or online, I record links to Chimactiv pages relevant to the lab session in a PPT file I make the relevant pages available on the computers in the lab room
What the students do
The students look at Chimactiv on their own in preparation for the lab session (Safety in a chemistry lab) The students can consult Chimactiv during discussions with the teacher or other students The students consult the pages individually to improve their reports if necessary
The benefits of Chimactiv for me as a teacher

« I noticed a greater level of involvement on the part of the students in the lab and an improvement in the quality of their reports since I began using Chimactiv. My average increased by two points. »

Main steps I point out the existence of Chimactiv and explain its relevance for the present lab session I point the students to the appropriate Chimactiv ressources I encourage the students to use Chimactiv when preparing their written responses
What I do
The course materials for the lab include instructions to visit the Chimactiv pages on personal and collective protection (links are included) At the beginning of the session, I verify their understanding while discussing as a group. If necessary, I send them back to the site during the session
What the students do
The students look at Chimactiv on their own and find the answers to the homework questions
The benefits of Chimactiv for me as a teacher

« Because of the heterogeneous background of the students in this module, the review of these concepts individually, and in an informal manner, is more efficient. I noticed a better capacity in the students to justify the use and choice of PPE. »
