"Draw, as if explaining to a high school student, how to identify which of these two compounds has the higher boiling point: KCl and HCl. In your drawing, strive for clarity in visually representing the concepts of bond type and strength."

This assignment generated close to 392 student drawings. The above examples highlight the different ways in which students chose to visually explain the scientific concepts.

Detailed analysis of all student drawings are found in the PtL Database.
