Students perceive Physical Chemistry to be a difficult course. One approach to reducing student anxiety is to provide them more opportunities to do problems they are likely to encounter on examinations. Daily online homework was used to increase the students’ practice with problems and incorporate conceptual questions into homework. Although students did approximately four times the problems with online homework than with pencil-and-paper homework, the averages in courses using pencil-and-paper versus online homework were comparable. However, students who did daily online homework assignments felt, based on free-form comments in an online survey, that it helped them keep up with the material and prepared them for examinations.
