This study investigates the situation of applying the experiment-based teaching in General Chemistry and Non-Metallic Chemistry at High schools. The frequency, experimental types (hand-on; modeling; etc.), learning methods (project-based; inquiry-based learning; etc.), and the difficulties and obstacles when they use hand-on experiments were taken into account. The results of a survey with 150 chemistry teachers in 112 high schools in 19 Northern provinces show the facts that the hands-on experiments in teaching chemistry were rarely used and some main reasons were indicated. Based on analyzing the survey results as well as surveyors’ proposals and desires, the solutions based on using experiment kits, fun experiments, experiments using household ingredients were introduced to increase the level and effectiveness of using hand-on experiments. |
