Description
This website was put together by David W. Mogk, Montana State University–professor of geology and contra/square dance caller. Using square dancing, he shows symmetry elements present in space groups. There are videos on the website, but everything seems simple enough to do in class.
Learning Goals
A student will be able learn about space group symmetry with a kinesthetic experience.
Implementation Notes
I haven't used this yet, but I hope to do so when I next teach Inorganic Chemistry II.
