Hootan Roshandel; Matthew Shammami; Shiyun Lin; Yin-Pok Wong; Paula L. Diaconescu – Journal of Chemical Education, 2023
The rise of virtual and online education in recent years has led to the development and popularization of many online tools, notably three-dimensional (3D) models and augmented reality (AR), for visualizing various structures in chemical sciences. The majority of the developed tools focus on either small molecules or biological systems, as…

Qianfu Luo; Chenyu Shi; Zhaoxia Wang; Meng Chen; Da-Hui Qu – Journal of Chemical Education, 2022
Given the importance of self-healing polymers for chemistry education, herein, we introduce our latest research results in self-healing materials based on thioctic acid into undergraduate chemistry laboratory. In this experiment, a natural small molecule, thioctic acid (TA), and a few other commercially-available reagents have been used to make a…

Brophy, Sean P.; Magana, Alejandra J.; Strachan, Alejandro – Advances in Engineering Education, 2013
We studied the use of online molecular dynamics simulations (MD) to enhance student abilities to understand the atomic processes governing plastic deformation in materials. The target population included a second-year undergraduate engineering course in the School of Materials Engineering at Purdue University. The objectives of the study were to…
