Abstract Details

2005, Master of Science, Miami University, Chemistry and Biochemistry.
The thesis described herein involves research in the domain of Curriculum Development and Testing in chemical education as partial fulfillment of the requirements for the M.S. program in chemistry at Miami University with an emphasis on chemical education. The research undertaken was the development of chemistry instructional materials which integrate authentic industrial chemical technology practices into a high school/two-year college curriculum. The study of iron corrosion was used to create eight activities, including the following areas: economic impact, relative reactivity of iron, oxidation reduction, factors affecting corrosion, qualitative and quantitative analysis, and the testing and evaluation of corrosion control coatings using simulated American Society of Testing and Materials (ASTM) protocols for corrosion testing. Additionally, chemical tests were conducted to explore the underlying mechanisms involved in the corrosion of iron. All activities were developed to integrate with National Science Education Standards (NSES), Voluntary Industrial Standards (VIS), and American College Testing (ACT) Workkeys Standards.
