Windows MovieMaker in Science

Ann Brown has introduced MovieMaker in Science to facilitate visual thinking and was able to use Moviemaker in her Science class to develop understanding of molecule shapes.

The students were asked to imagine how a sugar molecule would look like if they could see it. The only clue given was that molecule shapes had some kind of balance or symmetry about them. This is the result of imaginations into the molecular world!
