Even
though everyone had to learn the periodic table at school, there are probably
only a few of us that can still remember more than a few elements, their order,
what they actually do and where are they used. So, it’s fair to say that all of
us could stand to revise our chemistry knowledge, and this periodic table is
absolutely perfect for it.
If
you’ve ever wondered where on earth most of these elements can be found in our
day to day lives, wonder no more, because engineer Keith Enevoldsen is here to
teach us all!
In front of you is “The
Periodic Table of Elements, in Pictures and Words” Created By Keith Enevoldsen
Keith
is a Boeing software engineer who uses design to teach students of various age
groups. His customized and unique table is useful for those who are keen to
revise their chemistry knowledge.
The
table not only uses illustrations and comparisons but also colors and schemes
that help you to understand it better.
But
the best part about the table is the real-life examples of where the elements
can be found in everyday life.
Who
knew that Fireworks are made from Strontium and Lasers have Yttrium? This type
of teaching system is useful to people no matter what age and it’s also
entertaining!
Enevoldsen,
the creator of the table, updates it every time a new element is introduced.
For example, back in 2016, when the International Union of Pure and Applied
Chemistry announced four new element names, Enevoldsen added them to his
charts.
This
cool periodic table isn’t the only one-of-kind teaching material from the
clever engineer. With the use of illustration and colors to help people learn
better, he offers flash cards and posters along with a website called ThinkZone that is
filled with experiments and resources for mathematics, geography, history,
language, art, and music.
People absolutely loved this
type of teaching and found it very useful!
