| This presentation will explore the various electronic mechanisms we use in communicating chemistry and analyze the methods by which these can or should be graded. The use of simulations to communicate chemical concepts through discovery will be described, along with methods to grade such activities by students. The use of multimedia to aid in chemical visualization will be described, and the methods by which these activities can be graded. Finally, the role grades can play in bringing students to use new types of tutorial materials- such as podcasts- will be explored, along with the question of whether they should be used. |
