Instructional Ideas
- Preview video and script questions to ask throughout
- Create a cheat sheet for learners, explaining the rules of redox reactions
- Support video through further labs, discussions, examples, problems, and assignments that further teach redox reactions
Classroom Considerations
- Requires a computer, access to the Internet, and projection device to use the resource
- Video assumes learners understand how to balance chemical equations
- Pupils should know the difference between monoatomic, diatomic, and polyatomic ions and can determine their charge
- This video is hosted on YouTube
Pros
- Shows a demonstration of redox reactions, which is great for visual (and all!) learners
- Resource explains and balances redox reactions
Cons
- Video moves quickly through complex concepts, so it will require additional support through further discussion, questions, labs, and analysis of redox reactions
