《化学教育学报》（Journal of Chemical Education，通常缩写为 J. Chem. Educ.）是一份同行评审的月刊学术期刊，由美国化学会化学教育分会出版，并由美国化学会出版部发行。The Journal of Chemical Education (commonly abbreviated as J. Chem. Educ.) is a monthly peer-reviewed academic journal published by the Division of Chemical Education of the American Chemical Society and co-published by the American Chemical Society Publications Division. 该期刊创刊于1924年，是化学教育领域创刊最早、最具权威性的国际学术期刊之一。Established in 1924, it is one of the oldest and most prestigious international scholarly journals dedicated to chemical education. 其论文主要面向从中学到大学及研究生阶段的化学教育工作者、研究人员以及教学实验技术人员。Its articles cater primarily to chemistry educators, researchers, and instructional laboratory staff across secondary, undergraduate, and graduate levels.
该期刊涵盖了化学教育以及化学学习科学领域的各个方面。The journal covers all aspects of chemical education and the chemical learning sciences. 其发表的主要主题包括化学概念的新颖教学法、课程设置改革、教学实验设计与安全实践。Key topics published include novel pedagogical methods for chemical concepts, curriculum reform, instructional laboratory design, and safety practices. 期刊亦重点关注化学教育研究（CER），发表探讨学生认知模型、错误概念转化以及基于循证实践的教育评价等实证研究。The journal also places significant emphasis on Chemical Education Research (CER), publishing empirical studies on students' cognitive models, misconception remediation, and evidence-based assessment. 此外，该刊还刊登演示实验方案、教育技术与软件工具在教学中的整合应用，以及化学史在课堂中的融入。In addition, it features chemical demonstration protocols, the integration of educational technology and software tools in instruction, and the incorporation of the history of chemistry into the classroom.
《化学教育学报》于1924年由尼尔·戈登（Neil Gordon）创办，旨在为化学教师提供一个交流教学经验和实验方法的专业平台。The Journal of Chemical Education was founded in 1924 by Neil Gordon to provide chemistry teachers with a dedicated platform for sharing pedagogical experiences and laboratory practices. 在创刊初期，该刊重点关注中学与大学化学教学大纲的标准制定及实验器材的普及。During its early years, the journal focused heavily on establishing curriculum standards and promoting laboratory equipment for secondary and collegiate chemistry teaching. 随着学科发展，该刊逐渐从最初注重课堂演示与实验技巧的交流平台，演变为涵盖严谨教育实证研究的学术高地。Over decades of development, the journal transitioned from an exchange forum for classroom demonstrations and laboratory techniques into a rigorous academic venue encompassing empirical educational research. 2010年，该期刊将其数字化托管与全球发行工作全面整合至美国化学会出版平台。In 2010, the journal fully integrated its digital hosting and global distribution into the American Chemical Society Publications platform.
该期刊的历任主编均对国际化学教育范式的演化产生了深远影响。The successive Editors-in-Chief of the journal have exerted a profound influence on the evolution of international chemical education paradigms. 创刊主编尼尔·戈登（Neil Gordon，任期1924–1932年）不仅奠定了期刊的办刊方针，后来还倡导创立了闻名学术界的戈登研究会议（Gordon Research Conferences）。Founding editor Neil Gordon (serving 1924–1932) not only shaped the foundational editorial policy of the journal, but later spearheaded the establishment of the renowned Gordon Research Conferences. 威廉·F·基弗（William F. Kieffer，任期1955–1967年）在任期间，正值冷战时期科学教育改革浪潮，他大力推动了以化学键与热力学现代观点为核心的高校教材与实验革新。William F. Kieffer (serving 1955–1967) oversaw the journal during the post-Sputnik era of science education reform, actively promoting collegiate curriculum and laboratory innovations centered on modern bonding and thermodynamics. J·达德利·赫伦（J. Dudley Herron，任期1994–1999年）作为皮亚杰认知发展理论应用于化学教育的开拓者，在任内确立了化学教育研究作为严谨交叉学科分支的学术地位。J. Dudley Herron (serving 1994–1999), a pioneer in applying Piagetian cognitive development theory to chemistry learning, firmly established Chemical Education Research as a rigorous interdisciplinary domain during his tenure. 约翰·W·穆尔（John W. Moore，任期1999–2009年）在世纪之交主导了期刊的信息化升级，并创立了“JCE数字化学教育资源”（JCE WebShop & DLib）以推动多媒体教学资源的建设。John W. Moore (serving 1999–2009) guided the journal's digital transformation at the turn of the century and fostered multimedia instructional resource infrastructure through initiatives such as the JCE Digital Library. 诺伯特·J·皮恩塔（Norbert J. Pienta，任期2009–2019年）主导了期刊向ACS全数字化出版体系的平稳过渡，显著扩大了期刊的全球读者群与国际作者队伍。Norbert J. Pienta (serving 2009–2019) oversaw the smooth transition into the modern ACS digital publishing platform, substantially expanding the journal's international readership and global author base. 托马斯·A·霍尔姆（Thomas A. Holme）于2020年接任主编，他着重推动了期刊在量化概念评价工具、绿色化学教育以及普惠包容教学实践领域的发展。Thomas A. Holme assumed the role of Editor-in-Chief in 2020, emphasizing quantitative conceptual assessment tools, green chemistry education, and inclusive pedagogical practices.
