we planned to prepare the students for the jigsaw session, but dueto scheduling conflicts, we held the jigsaw in the recitation period directly following an exam.To avoid burdening students already anxious about an exam with the need to additionally preparefor this activity, we decided not to announce the session prior to class. Students were tasked withexplaining their subteam’s work to students from other production phases. We asked them toshare the following in their jigsaw groups: • Update of important findings • What was important to know for your particular phase? • Why was it important for your design?At the end of the jigsaw session, we elicited anonymous feedback, asking the students to writewhat they’d like to see

However,these activities are limited in the types of views and planes that can be visualized, and are alsodifficult to scale to large-lecture situations. One alternative is to use the plan view, which showsspecific slices through a unit cell and provides information about crystal symmetry [5]. Thisclarifies atomic positions for students, but does not allow students to visualize any plane of theirselection.Computer-based activities can provide students with more flexibility in manipulating structures.In 1996, Foley [6] developed a computer program, CrystalVis, to teach students about

In cases with shorter class sessions (45 minutes), students should have time to plan,prepare, and pour their molds, letting them cure overnight. We have used toaster ovens asincubators during longer class sessions (90 minutes) to accelerate the cure time allowing studentsto complete multiple fabrication stages during one period. Note that material used in making themolds must be tolerant of 150 degree Fahrenheit temperatures.
