MATSE 400: Crystal Chemistry requires students to build complex 3D models of crystals. In a traditional lab situation, the instructor walks around the room to assist the students while they build the 3D models. The video above provides the online students an opportunity to see the intricate details of the model building process.

Considerations

Accessibility

  • Closed captions and transcripts need to be added for videos.
  • The accompanying audio track should contain specific directions to meet the needs of students who are visually impaired.
