My rating of this resource: *****
My experience using this resource: Chemistry
Topic I was teaching: Rutherford's Gold Foil Experiment
My learning goal for which this resource was used: For students to see the set up and results of Rutherford's Gold Foil Experiment.
Course Level: Intro or Regular
How I/my students used the resource: I used this in the middle of a lesson to demonstrate what Rutherford set up and the results he received.
Value Added: Provides visualization or animation, Increases student engagement and motivation
Strengths: The animations are excellent and provide a great visual for the set up and results of the experiment. The voice over is good and the buttons at the bottom allow to skip around.
Weaknesses: There is no pause button or way to manipulate the playback, so once it starts you can not control it.
