How do we teach topics such as electron congurations - that were graduate school material a generation ago- so that high school students can learn and understand them? Walk away with some effective ways to teach the structure of the atom. Using a user-friendly spectrophotometer, explore how light interacts with dyes. Then use unique spectrum cards to show how atoms, color, and spectra are related, making a conceptual bridge between a core chemical technology- making dyes- and the fundamental structure of the atom.
