This video is part of the Back to School Webinar Series on Teaching found at https://nanohub.org/groups/chem/live_...
Table of Contents available below.

Dr. Reppert will discuss his use of nanoHUB Jupyter Notebook-based content in college Chemistry courses, focusing on nanoHUB's unique possibilities for hands-on simulation, visualization, and programming projects. As examples, he will describe three specific applications of nanoHUB content to courses at Purdue:

• A stand-alone Lattice Protein simulation and visualization app used to illustrate statistical mechanics and protein-folding concepts in CHM 372 (Physical Chemistry for life science students): https://nanohub.org/tools/latticeprotein
• A nanoHUB-hosted home page for a Physical Chemistry laboratory (CHM 37301), which students use both to access lab instructions, to learn basic Python programming, and to process and visualize their experimental data: https://nanohub.org/tools/chm37301
• A nanoHUB-hosted home page for a graduate Molecular Spectroscopy course, that guides students through advanced molecular and electrodynamics simulations as a means to visualize spectroscopic processes and learn the Python programming skills necessary to run molecular simulations and process spectroscopic data: https://nanohub.org/tools/molspec/
• The Protein Structure Lab tool (Amide I Vibrational Spectroscopy Lab) can be found at: https://nanohub.org/tools/amidespec

He will close with a few tips for educators interested in getting started with nanoHUB-hosted content in their courses.
