In this research, a Technological Didactic Unit (TDU) was implemented as a learning strategy in twelfth-grade chemistry courses at Instituto Carmen Conte Lombardo in Coclé province. The TDU aimed to enhance chemistry classes by leveraging technological tools, focusing on understanding chemical kinetics and equilibrium concepts through virtual simulations. Two groups participated: Group A focused on chemical kinetics using the ChemLab simulator, while Group B worked on chemical equilibrium with three activities from the LaboVirtual Blogspot simulator.
Following the TDU implementation, there was an 83% increase in learning reaction rate concepts and a 72% improvement in understanding catalyst influence. The activities designed for chemical equilibrium also yielded positive outcomes, with a 22% increase in comprehension using the LaboVirtual Blogspot simulator.
The integration of technological tools in schools across the region promotes independent and autonomous learning among students. For institutions, it not only enhances student motivation but also cultivates a deeper interest in the sciences, with a particular emphasis on Chemistry.
