Yes I found it easy


practice makes a man perfect. so solving the assignment was fun and challenging. So i liked it


while doing it only we can understand how much we learnt


Definitely..after doing ourselves..it is nw more clear to us.


yes, because the demo video was side by which help as to understand better


Adequate time to be given for practice


In morning ,I feel difficulty but later I could cope with it


It was interesting to do chemistry experiments in computer.


All of them connected well to the theory in real-time.


Because of net issues...not able to do practice

22. We have provided you ChemCollective Virtual Lab Spoken Tutorials and many other learning materials in this workshop. What else is required for you to conduct a similar workshop in your institution by yourself?





23. Suggestions for improvement or any other suggestions.


Doing a great job..


Good


its nice. I would like to be resource and will like to work with the experts


The workshop meeting could have been a little less fast and should have provided more time for us to complete our assignments. A few demonstrations could also have been conducted about the basics in the beginning to allow the user to become comfortable with the application.


Customized solutions through ChemCollective for different streams.


please extend VL for determination of water quality parameters harness, COD, BOD, DO etc. for benefit of engineering students. thank you


workshop for computational research based will be helpful


I think already improvement is going on...


I already attended Jmol session also, both workshops are very good. Thank you for such workshops.


more explanation can be provided regarding the process of working and alternatives which could be explored


The screen time ay e reduced


Advanced level workshop can be conducted after beginner level. Thank you


Everything was just fine! May be a little extra time for the first two assignments would help.


Apart from spoken tutorial , procedure for simulation in v labs can also be included.
