How to use models to boost understanding

It’s often hard for chemistry students to understand the complex chemistry processes that they can’t see, such as the process of polymerisation, for example. And, in many cases, they need to be able to explain what happens during these processes for the purposes of their own learning or assessments. Using models and representations in class is a powerful way of helping students make sense of it all. Read this article for practical modelling examples you can use in your classroom to help your students get ahead in chemistry.
