Moving from Description to Explanation with Molecular Level Visualization and the VisChem Approach Mark as Favorite (2 Favorites)

WEBINAR (1 hour) recorded May 01, 2025

The VisChem Approach (developed by Dr. Roy Tasker) uses carefully produced, dynamic particle-level animations, combined with constructivist teaching strategies, all informed by a cognitive learning model and the latest research on learning through multimedia, to foster conceptual understanding of chemistry. In this webinar you will briefly experience the VisChem Approach, learn how it is used in secondary chemistry classrooms, join the VisChem community of practice, and access a searchable hub of free resources that support the use of dynamic, molecular-level visualizations.

Presenters:

  • Katie Yankovec, Science Teacher, Coon Rapids High School
  • Ellen Yezierski, Professor of Chemistry, Miami University

        Date: Thursday, May 1 at 7:00 PM Eastern Time
