Tóm tắt

Interest plays an important role in improving the learning efficiency of the teaching process. The 10th-grade chemistry subject of The New General Education Curriculum is designed with a multitude of changes in terms of content, layout, and presentation form, which attract readers and meet the program's requirements. To further promote creativity and increase learners' interest, one innovative approach is the design and use of learning materials such as comic books, and videos that provide some knowledge of the lesson, games that require students to solve learning tasks, and worksheets that enhance students' interest in learning chemistry. This article gives examples of learning materials designed and used in some 10th-grade chemistry lessons as well as a questionnaire to identify students' interest in learning chemistry through three basic signals: emotion, cognition, and action. The results of pedagogical experiments show that the use of these learning materials is effective in promoting interest in learning for students studying 10th-grade chemistry. This study can be a reference for teachers in applying technology to build learning materials and visual aids to enhance learners' interest in chemistry. Most notably, teachers and students can quantitatively assess learners' interests through questionnaires in terms of emotion, cognition, and action.
