Instructional Ideas
- Ask the class to form a hypothesis that describes the outcome of the reaction using a certain number of atoms, then test that hypothesis in the interactive
- Assign the interactive as individual practice during the first few days of a chemical reactions unit
Classroom Considerations
- Learners should be familiar with the meanings of concentration and reaction rate; consider holding a brief discussion of both terms before launching the interactive
Pros
- Uses simple graphics, allowing students to better view the progress of the reaction
- The resource operates smoothly and is easy to control
Cons
- None
