| Activity 3: A Tool for Inquiry - LOGAL Chemical
Kinetics |
| Initial
Thoughts |
What is the reason for this reflection?
|
You should have done all of the Rates of Diffusion
levels in the hands on explorations. You are asked to comment on your
experiences.
Share your insights and your questions with your group and the Field
Expert.

One hour to post your ideas and read the postings of
others. |

You might want to comment on how (if) you found LOGAL Chemical Kinetics and its tools to support inquiry. Consider why the designers of
the LOGAL Chemical Kinetics added a design level and why it is linked with
other levels.
|
| Post your comments in the Logal Chemical Kinetics discussion area. Look for the Tools: LCK Activity 3 Discussion thread. You should read the comments of others and make 2 of your own.

Reflection |
What is the reason for this second reflection?
|
During the second reflection, participants
are asked to post questions, comments, and LOGAL Chemical Kinetics simulations they have built.

Here are a few suggestions for comments:
- Does this type of model better support conceptual understanding, compared to traditional laboratory mehtods? Is the simulation model presented by LOGAL believeable to students? Is it worth the effort?
- How and when would you use this micro-world?
