In the Classroom

Use virtual labs as pre-activities before teaching the concepts or as reinforcement for concepts learned. Use ready-made problems for practice or enrichment. Replace over used activities from a textbook with great real world examples, laboratory activities, video clips, and practice examples. Have students create their own original videos about chemistry concepts being learned in class using Typito, reviewed here. Share the videos using a resource such as TeacherTube, reviewed here.
