The goal of the ChemViz project is to apply computer simulation and visualization tools to empower instructors in teaching chemistry.
Students learn more by experimenting than by watching.
This yearan NSF director has advised the funding of a 2.5 year ChemViz II project to develop 3D visualization capabilities and additional curriculum materials. This and other funds means that several scientists and visualization programmers will be available to mentor undergraduate students. As a result there are new lesson plans and additional help buttons throughout ChemViz.
