Abstract
In an attempt to increase student success in the physical sciences, Dubetz et al discuss on the implementing multiple education reforms in general chemistry courses in universities to reach diverse learning styles. The reforms includes on the course structure, administration of a diagnostic exam, course web site, group problem solving, weekly quizzes, homework problems, practice exams, guided-inquiry experiments, and supplemental instruction. The reforms implemented in General Chemistry I and II result to a significant improvement in grades and decreased attrition rates with positive feedbacks from students that found all reforms useful.
