折纸的使用是作为一个可访问的和可转移的建模系统,通过它来传达分子形状的复杂性和突出的结构-功能关系。折纸的实现已被发现是一个通用的替代传统的球和棒模型,拥有的关键优势是既便宜又容易获得。这些模型的挑战性、有形性、成就感和奖杯般的地位被发现联合收割机结合在一起,在转移到家庭环境方面成为潜在的宝贵外联资源,大多数(>70%)参与者希望向朋友和家人展示它们。一系列的模型被构建和他们的实施作为讲座辅助在中学和高等教育课程进行了评估。
The use of Origami is presented as an accessible and transferable modeling system through which to convey the intricacies of molecular shape and highlight structure-function relationships. The implementation of origami has been found to be a versatile alternative to conventional ball-and-stick models, possessing the key advantages of being both inexpensive and readily accessible. The challenge, tangible nature, sense of achievement and hence trophy-like status of the models were found to combine and serve as a potentially invaluable outreach resource in terms of transfer to the home environment, with most (>70%) participants) wishing to show them to friends and family. A range of models were constructed and their implementation as lecture aids in both secondary and tertiary curricula has been assessed.
