Information for Instructors Interested in Kinemage Authorship


This study is part of an NSF-funded project to determine if student authorship of molecular structures is more beneficial to student learning and attitudes than simply viewing of premade images. If you are teaching a junior/senior level biochemistry course, please consider having your students author a kinemage rather than a term paper. Even if you aren't teaching such a course, you are welcome to try out the fourth edition of our kinemage authorship manual (see below). You may find the second (tutorial) part of the manual useful in generating kinemages for your lectures/presentations or in your own research.
