The three items were designed to illustrate reaction scenarios in which the major and minor products have different kinetic pathways but are similar in terms of thermodynamic favorability (Figure , Problem 1), in which the major product is both the kinetic and thermodynamic product (Figure , Problem 2), and in which the major product is the kinetic product but not the thermodynamic product (Figure , Problem 3). The resources framework and RC were used to guide the data collection. Figures and illustrates an expert resource map and RCD for the Markovnikov Addition and Zaitsev 235 Elimination in which the resources are denoted in circles. Using a methodology similar to Braun and Graulich , the specific information for constructing RCD, which could extracted from a given resource, was identified. The four pieces of information include (1.) structure, (2.) the type of reaction, (3.) kinetic, and (4.) thermodynamic. The extracted information provides key insight into the energetic information used to construct the RCD. The block 240 arrow denotes how students transitioned between a resource and the graphical RCD. This transition between the representational competence (RC) aspect is associated with the analyses.
