Abstract |
Certain scientific education experiments require calculation and analysis, which take multiple steps and a large amount of time. It would be more effective in science lab learning if we could apply a mobile device technology to help students deal with complicated steps in the scientific analysis. SDS-PAGE is a basic protein analysis for several applications, such as disease markers or drug targets in medicine. SDS-PAGE users have to calculate the protein molecular weight before performing a further step, but the traditional approach consists of several complex steps, such as taking a logarithm of every single molecular weight of standard markers. This article implemented and evaluated a novel method for calculating the protein molecular weight on SDS-PAGE using a mobile app and applied it to a science lab experiment to support learning from anywhere at any time. The experimental results showed that the average protein molecular weight calculation time of the mobile app approach was significantly lower than the traditional approach. In addition, based on the perception questionnaire, it was found that the protein learning time was reduced and user satisfaction was increased. |
