| Popis: |
Spatial thinking represents an ongoing challenge in geoscience education, but concrete manipulatives can bridge this gap by illustrating abstract concepts. In an undergraduate optical mineralogy lab session, TotBlocks were used to illustrate how crystal structures influence properties such as cleavage and pleochroism. More abstracted properties, e.g., extinction angles, were increasingly difficult to illustrate using this tool. |
