| Summary: | Learning the periodic table is essential in chemistry, yet many students struggle with understanding and memorizing it. With advancements in technology, education has become more accessible, making e-books a more convenient alternative to traditional textbooks. To support and enhance the learning process, the flipped e-book Beyond the Basics: An Exploration of the Periodic Table has been developed for primary, secondary, pre-diploma, and diploma students as an instructional tool. Designed using Canva, a user-friendly platform for creating professional educational materials, the ebook integrates engaging visuals and interactive content. Additionally, learning games are created using Wordwall, a game-based learning platform, to reinforce key concepts. The e-book is easily accessible via a shared link and Google Sites, ensuring convenience for students. This e-book introduces learners to the names, symbols, atomic numbers, and mass numbers of key elements from Group 1A(1) to 8A(18) and transition metals in a simplified manner. To emphasize the significance of these elements, real-world applications are included, helping students understand their relevance in daily life. The ADDIE Model is applied as the instructional design framework to ensure effective content delivery. In conclusion, integrating a flipped e-book approach with traditional learning methods enhances student engagement and understanding of the periodic table. Future developments will focus on creating more interactive e-books and educational games to further promote interest in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) education. |
