视图软件在结构化学教学中的应用

Application of Visual Software in Structure Chemistry Teaching

针对结构化学教学中普遍存在的学生反映难于理解,内容枯燥的问题,文章尝试使用在量子化学计算中广泛采用的视图软件来辅助教学。结果表明,通过可视化软件辅助结构化学教学工作,可以使得学生直观、生动的理解结构化学课程中相对抽象的学习内容,可以在近似于游戏的环境中让学生接受新知识,是一种很好的结构化学教学手段。

As all known, structure chemistry is difficult to study in practice. This is because too much quantum chemistry knowledge is included in it, for instance, the atom orbital, molecular orbital, the point group symmetry, and so on. These knowledge request our students to have better base of mathematics and physics than they have. So, most of the students complain that structure chemistry is not lovely and difficult. In this paper, we try to introduce some graphic software, which are popular in quantum chemistry calculations, into our teaching practice, and we found our students to learn as in a game. So, the teaching effect is increased efficiently in this way.
