Abstract

Problem Statement: The use of computers in chemistry education is increasing rapidly and becoming a supporting device in teaching abstract concepts and complex subjects. Because of the fact that temperature-heat, matter and structural features are the subjects in which the students mostly have difficulties, we try to confirm the effectiveness of using computer-assisted instruction in those subject matters.
