About:
This project was created by students in the TN Governor's School for Emerging Technologies under the direction of TTU Chemistry Faculty Instructor Janet Coonce. Contact: jcoonce@tntech.edu. Program Directors: Dr. Doug Talbert, Department of Computer Science and Dr. Chris Wilson, Department of Mechanical Engineering. www.tntech.edu
For now, these animations seem to work best in Internet Explorer or Chrome stable, but we are actively working to make updates and improvements.
