2010  Dr Mark Williams  University of Western Sydney New South
Wales University of Western Sydney   For innovative online
resources providing high quality, timely and constructive
feedback: enhancing student learning for diverse student cohorts
in chemistry   Chemistry is a core enabling discipline for many
science-based degrees, but first year student cohorts are
increasingly diverse. Some students have strong backgrounds in
high school chemistry, while others have none. Award winning
Mark Williams’ sophisticated and innovative online resources
allow students to develop chemical understanding and skills
through specific feedback, immediate and based on their own
answers. By doing this, Mark has significantly improved student
success in introductory chemistry units by creating resources
tailor-made to a wide range of students.
