Scott Byrum, a chemistry teacher at North Sand Mountain High School in Higden, AL, creatively decorated the ceiling of his teaching lab with a periodic table using square acoustic tiles. This engaging visual aid, with vinyl letters color-coded by each element’s state at standard temperature and pressure, helps capture students’ attention in a way similar to video games. Byrum emphasizes the importance of keeping his classroom exciting to maintain student interest amidst the distractions of modern technology.
