This slide set is a small user guide for Edumol.fi web application.
Edumol is JSmol-JSme-based molecular modelling site. It's chemistry and educational functions are optimized for all school levels. Please enjoy.
Learn more about molecular modeling in chemistry education through this book: http://bit.ly/immice. All exercises are done via Edumol.

be edited in 2D side
15. Learn molecular modeling
Introduction to Molecular Modeling in Chemistry Education
This book offers theoretical
insights and hands-on modeling
activities. The goal is to learn how
to implement molecular modeling
in chemistry teaching.
The exercises are performed using
Edumol.fi web application, which is
a free JSmol-JSME-based
molecular modeling and
visualization service.
