It was also to find out the factors that influenced the perception of students towards chemistry. For this research, 90 students were chosen as sample from a population of 95 students through convenience sampling technique to maintain 95% confidence level and 0.025 margin of error. Cronbach’s alpha was calculated to be 0.89 during reliability test. A survey questionnaire comprised of 41 items categorized as classroom environment, teaching pedagogy, resources, students’ level of interest, and curriculum was used to collect data. A descriptive analysis was done using excel/SPSS. The study concluded that Chemistry is least favourite subject of the students known through survey questionnaire. The classroom environment in the school is found to be conducive and interactive . It was found that Chemistry teacher used different teaching strategy but less of practical work. The study found that students learned more through practical work. It was known that students don’t find chemistry practical fun and enjoyable. The findings also indicated that not much of multimedia were used in teaching. Besides, the study revealed that students see Chemistry subjects containing more of abstract ideas and chemical formulas which make learning difficult. Surprisingly, only 30%(27) students were willing to take up jobs that require knowledge of Chemistry.  \nKeywords: perception, classroom environment, science curriculum, pedagogy, learning  \nCitation: Nidup, Y., Zangmo, S., Rinzin, Y., Yuden, S., Subba, H.

Bhutan placed great importance in institutionalizing a relevant and challenging science curriculum for all of its school children. Science was considered important as mentioned in the‘Science Curriculum Framework PP-XII’ (DCRD, 2011),  \nScientific knowledge accelerates technological development in the country and is therefore, accorded great importance as an area of learning in the formal education system. Knowledge of science is indispensable for every citizen as it is one of the means to help people understand and make sense of the workings of the universe and the natural world around them. The wellbeing and lifestyle of people and of the natural world are greatly affected by the knowledge, skills and values of science that an individual hold (p. iii) .  \nThe ‘New Approach to Primary Education’(NAPE) was launched in 1986, seeking to orient the ","cbCainONFLH7OZMr","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCainONFLH7OZMr","pdf",288142,16,"English","# Introduction\n## Overview of science curriculum development in Bhutan\n# Methodology and instrument\n## Sample and sampling approach\n## Reliability and questionnaire design\n# Findings\n## Classroom environment and teaching strategies\n## Practical work, multimedia use, and abstract content perceptions\n## Career willingness related to Chemistry\n# Conclusion","[{\"question\":\"What was the purpose of the study on Chemistry perceptions?\",\"answer\":\"The research examined Class X students’ perceptions toward Chemistry at Phuentsholing Higher Secondary School and identified factors that influence those perceptions.\"},{\"question\":\"How was the sample for the study selected?\",\"answer\":\"Ninety students were selected as a sample from a population of 95 using convenience sampling.\"},{\"question\":\"What did the study conclude about students’ interest in Chemistry?\",\"answer\":\"Chemistry was found to be the least favourite subject, with classroom environment reported as conducive and interactive, while practical work and multimedia use were limited.\"}]","The Perception of Class X Students of Phuentsholing Higher Secondary School towards Chemistry - Research findings and factors influencing student perceptions | PDF",1792073222]
