摘要
In order to help first -year chemistry students prepare for the final exam and assist the American Chemical Society (ACS) Examinations Institute (El) in a pilot usability study of the ACS General Chemistry 2012 First-Semester Online Exam (GC12FO), Towson University students enrolled in General Chemistry I were given the opportunity to evaluate the GC12FO as preparation for the final exam during the week prior to the final exam. The GC12FO score replaced a low hour exam grade if the score improved their averages. This chapter describes the outcomes from this study piloting the web-based exam and the impact of the use of the online ACS exam on final examination performance.
