Using Role-Playing Game Dice To Teach the Concepts of Symmetry
Anthony K. GraftonJournal of Chemical Education2011 Article ASAPUsing Role-Playing Game Dice To Teach the Concepts of Symmetry
Anthony K. GraftonJournal of Chemical Education2011 Article ASAPFinding and describing the location of symmetry elements in complex objects is often a difficult skill to learn. Introducing the concepts of symmetry using high-symmetry game dice is one way of helping students overcome this difficulty in introductory ...
Unique Atoms and the Identification of the Symmetry Elements of Molecules
John P. GrahamJournal of Chemical Education2011 Article ASAPUnique Atoms and the Identification of the Symmetry Elements of Molecules
John P. GrahamJournal of Chemical Education2011 Article ASAPExplicitly stating that every symmetry element of a molecule must contain all unique atoms enables students to more easily eliminate from consideration absent symmetry elements and identify those elements present more readily. Additionally, in-class ...
