Impact of Mobile Chemistry Apps on the Teaching-Learning Process in Higher Education
Published in Lionello Pogliani, Suresh C. Ameta, A. K. Haghi, Chemistry and Industrial Techniques for Chemical Engineers, 2020
These are some of the smartphone and operating system used by student user, desktop, and tablet computers at different colleges and universities. The access of chemistry apps in androids, smartphones, and tablets is used in a large group of students. One of the simplest and most effective ways of incorporating technology into our teaching is to create podcasts and screencasts. Podcast (audio only) and screencast (audio with video or screen capture) allow students to recover material in their own time at their own pace. There are some useful resources for how these can be created in a chemistry context.
Teacher perspectives on adoption of student-made screencasts as a peer learning approach in secondary school mathematics

Using technology to teach mathematics enables students to kinaesthetically engage with mathematical concepts, enhancing their mathematical thinking skills (Calder & Larkin, 2018; Galligan & Hobohm, 2018). Screencasts are one such technology suited for teaching mathematics. A screencast is a video recording of a live digital screen, usually accompanied with audio narration and/or subtitle text describing the action happening on the screen (Croft et al., 2013). Screencasts are ideal for explaining and demonstrating mathematical concepts and processes, with students able to pause, and re-watch parts of the video to aid in their comprehension. Screencasts can be made available online, with students able to access remotely for self-study or revision at home. If they have been absent from class, screencasts can aid the student to stay on top of the lessons being taught.
