Comments:
- How did you use this material?
This would be a good virtual lab for high school students.
- Clarity
The virtual lab was pretty clear. I was not sure what I was supposed to do in the kitchen, but there were only a few options so it was not too confusing.
- How would you recommend using this material?
I would use this as an introduction to acids and bases. It would help students identify acids and bases that are everyday items. This would also be good for introducing indicators.
