Nowadays, there is a lot of discussion regarding teaching methods, their characteristics and potential, as well as their limitations. Aiming to encourage new methodologies for the teaching of chemistry in higher education, a novel didactic game was developed and applied in order to provide parallel support to undergraduate chemistry students learning about molecular symmetry. This educational resource was well-accepted by the students and was found to be a ludic evaluation tool for the study of symmetry. The game was applied to undergraduate chemistry sophomores and was found to be a powerful tool to improve students’ skills in several topics, including molecular geometry, spatial molecular projections, and electronic and vibrational spectroscopy. During the activities, students participated by sharing their doubts about the presence of symmetry. In this paper, we report and discuss the results of the experimental use of this new resource developed for the teaching of molecular symmetry.

快速点击！玩分子对称游戏，练习和评估学生对对称概念的理解

如今，关于教学方法，它们的特点和潜力以及它们的局限性，已经进行了很多讨论。为了鼓励高等学校化学教学的新方法，开发并应用了一种新颖的教学游戏，以便为化学专业的学生提供有关分子对称性的平行支持。这种教育资源被学生们很好地接受，并被认为是研究对称性的荒谬评估工具。该游戏适用于大学化学专业的二年级学生，被认为是提高学生在分子几何，空间分子投影以及电子和振动光谱学等几个主题上技能的强大工具。在活动中，学生们通过分享他们对对称性的怀疑来参与。
