1 Crystals for the classroom An innovative, Web-based, undergraduate teaching-learning module George C. Pimentel Award in Chemical Education Symposium in honor of Nicholas J. Turro Ron Rusay 1, Natalia Zaitseva 2, Ellena Kutner 1 1) Diablo Valley College / 2) Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory

2 Crystals for the Classroom Bridging undergraduate STEM education and the frontiers of research http://crystals.llnl.gov http://crystals.llnl.gov A modular collection of teaching-learning tools for undergraduate chemistry courses that can be adapted to teach various Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) topics and concepts

3 Chemistry lessons are embedded in the story of the National Ignition Facility ( NIF ) http://crystals.llnl.gov/nif-kdp-frameset.html http://crystals.llnl.gov/nif-kdp-frameset.html Learning activities were developed relative to the context of the research and science behind NIF. Crystals for the Classroom http://crystals.llnl.gov http://crystals.llnl.gov

4 Web based, distributed freely Activities provide a diverse collection that support a wide variety of learning and teaching styles: http://ep.llnl.gov/msds/Chem120/learning.html http://ep.llnl.gov/msds/Chem120/learning.html Fundamentally aimed at a student seeing-hearing-doing Crystals for the Classroom http://crystals.llnl.gov http://crystals.llnl.gov
