AbstractMotivated by the current Covid-19 pandemic that has spurred a substantial flow of structural data we describe how molecular visualization experiences can be used to make these datasets accessible to a broad audience. Using a variety of technology vectors related to the cloud, 3D- and virtual reality gear, we examine how to share curated visualizations of structural biology, modeling and/or bioinformatics datasets for interactive and collaborative exploration. We discuss F.A.I.R. as overarching principle for sharing such visualizations. We provide four initial example scenes related to recent Covid-19 structural data together with a ready-to-use (and share) implementation in the UnityMol software.SynopsisVisualization renders structural molecular data accessible to a broad audience. We describe an approach to share molecular visualization experiences based on FAIR principles. Our workflow is exemplified with recent Covid-19 related data.

The intermolecular force is one of the chemistry topics covered in the high school curriculum in Indonesia. As the characteristics of chemistry concepts in general, intermolecular forces concepts can be presented in the three levels of chemical representations (microscopic, symbolic, and macroscopic).  Currently, chemistry teaching materials are available in Indonesian schools mostly have limited support for helping students to visualize the molecular aspect of intermolecular forces concepts mainly in the form of three-dimensional space (3D). This study aimed to produce an E-Learning teaching material enriched with 3D Molecular Visualization. The product (teaching material) in this study is presented by considering the syntax of guided inquiry-based learning. The product was developed with the procedure adopted from Lee and Owens, including assessment/analysis, need assessment, front-end analysis, design, and development. The product is valid and suitable to be applied in online chemistry teaching. However, further study to investigate the effectiveness of this product empirically need to be explored in the future.
