29 April 2020

The Head of the Chemistry Department at the College of Science at the University of Bahrain (UOB), Dr. Layla Mohammed Al-Shaqri stated that “The Department has been engaged in filming practical courses and the practical part of theoretical courses for different levels of study, during the period of electronic teaching, in addition to filming more than 40 practical experiments to be presented to students during remote learning. "

Dr. Al-Shaqri indicated that the courses included in filming for the first, second and third academic years are: General Chemistry Chemy 101,102,106, Analytical Chemistry Chemy 211,312,310, Organic Chemistry Chemy 221,223,220,322, Physical Chemistry Chemy 231,332, and Inorganic Chemistry Chemy 241,342.

She added, "Filming included the practical part of the courses offered for students of the College of Health and Sports Sciences as well, namely CGS218 and PHAM 328."

It is worth noting that the E-Learning Center at UOB has documented 39 laboratory experiments that are distributed over 15 chemistry courses at the University's College of Science, and 7 of the Department's professors participated in presenting these experiments, while 3 specialists from the E-Learning Center filmed and documented the laboratory experiments in not more than 3 days.

The filming process was carried out in the laboratories of the College of Science at the University's campus in Sakhir, during the largest possible number of laboratories were used for the success of the experiment, in addition to the latest photographic equipment available in the e-Learning Center to achieve high quality in the filming process. Also, the documentation process was characterized by flowability and speed due to the cooperation between the Center and the College of Science, as good coordination and pre-preparation of experiments had a great impact on completing the largest number of experiments possible in record time.

Bearing in mind that the e-Learning Center is making great efforts to ensure the continuity of the distance learning process as required and by using all the capabilities and expertise available in the Center, and to prevent the educational process from being affected by the exceptional circumstances that the Kingdom and the world are going through.
