Publisher Description
This fully-narrated App allows you to interact with over 50 interesting molecules and reinforces molecular geometry principles by showing the molecule in 2-D and 3-D.
Important/Interesting molecules are divided into nine different groups; “Chemical Weaponry”, “Controlled Substances”, “Various Organic Molecules”, “Medicines”, “Interesting Natural Products”, “Biological Molecules”, “Chemical Toxins”, “Explosives”, and “Carbon Compounds”. After a category is chosen, several molecules of interest are shown on two-dimensional whiteboards. When one of those molecules is selected it appears in three-dimensions and interesting facts are narrated. In addition, one can interact with the molecule; e.g., change its size and orientation. This App will help make the connection between two- and three-dimensional depictions of molecules reinforcing molecular geometry principles as well as learning interesting facts for over 50 important/interesting molecules.
Unfortunately, the study of chemistry has traditionally always been taught in two-dimensions; e.g., a page in a book, a PowerPoint, or the whiteboard during lecture. However, molecules and reactions of these molecules occur in three-dimensions and the student who cannot imagine or draw these molecules in three-dimensions inevitably does not pass. In addition, the study of chemistry requires an understanding of how atoms within molecules are oriented in three-dimensions, conformational changes of these molecules, stereochemical principles of these molecules, and the changes these molecules undergo during reactions (reaction mechanisms). The student who has mastered the ability to visualize molecules in three-dimensions; e.g., molecular geometry, conformational changes, and stereochemical principles, is rewarded with a better understanding of chemical and physical properties, and, perhaps most importantly, the ability to predict chemical reactivity as well as draw/predict organic chemistry mechanisms. We propose our solution via three-dimensional VR chemistry teaching/review tools to help high school and college chemistry students as well as appeal to anyone of all ages who is interested in learning basic chemistry principles.
