CHED 1706 |
| Most students who take organic chemistry have limited interest in the subject. Frequently they are overwhelmed by the amount and the level of difficulty of the material. In order to help students understand and recall the material and make the lectures more interesting, a number of illustrations, in a form of short comics, have been developed. An example of illustration of “bow tie” convention for drawing of Fischer projection formulas is shown here. Additional examples such as use of “small animal convention” in drawing Fischer projection formulas, an illustration of a Tollens' test, a way to make study of organic nomenclature more interesting and an illustration of role of keratin will be presented.
