Abstract
Using the latest in animation technology we have created a fun and interactive visualization of a mass spectrometer to support student understanding of how this instrument works. This visualization can be used to enhance tutoring and teaching as part of a Web-based collection of resources for undergraduate STEM education in the analytical sciences. The visualization is implemented in Adobe Flash and can easily be embedded in an instructor’s Web page.
