[AG-TECH] AG Seminar on chemical visualization March 4

[Mary Ellen Michael]

David Bergandine will be giving a presentation over the Access Grid as part 
of the NCSA Seminar Series.   The venue is Full Sail.  The link to the 
AGSchedule is http://agschedule.ncsa.uiuc.edu/viewday.asp?date=3/4/2003

If you would like to have your AG participate, join us an hour before the 
event (12:00 noon central standard time) when we will do a test cruise.

David Bergandine
ChemViz; an Environment for Learning Chemical Concepts
1:00 to 3:00 p.m. CST, Room E102A, SRP

David Bergandine is a teaching associate at the University Laboratory High 
School at the University of Illinois - UC. He will give a presentation of 
the tools and databases that comprise a software application, ChemViz, a 
set of scientific visualization tools and curriculum materials designed to 
make computational chemistry accessible to high school and college teachers 
and students. ChemViz allows teachers and students to use computational 
tools to learn about chemistry without understanding how the computational 
tools work. It is easily adopted for regular current research for 
scientists. The concepts that can be explored, such as bonds, electronic 
orbitals, and densities, are difficult to grasp without visualizations.
