Abstract

The space lattice in the course of Crystallography exhibits a close relationship with the equivalent points and unit cells within crystals. The foundational aspect of deriving a space lattice lies in the conceptual comprehension and precise assessment of equivalent points within crystal cells. However, conventional classroom teaching has only introduced a limited range of simple two-dimensional structural patterns, thereby neglecting the real-structure problems and impeding students' capacity for high order thinking. This study has presented the utilization of flash demonstration and multi-dimensional real crystals as instructional resources, aimed at fostering high order thinking skills. The process and methodology for deriving space lattice were thoroughly discussed. The derivation of the space lattice's three-step method was proposed. Enhancing the construction of classroom quality is beneficial in attaining the teaching objective of fostering high order thinking skills.
