I'm trying to find new ways to teach the Atomic Theory and the Development of the theory from Dalton to Now. I'm interested to see what kind of actiities or projects people have done with this so I can get some ideas. I'd especially welcome more advanced information or projects for my honors classes. I'm really trying to up the ante with my honors classes this year, but I'm having trouble on this topic.
