This work describes select narratives pertaining to undergraduate teaching and mentorship at UCLA Chemistry and Biochemistry by Alex Spokoyny and his junior colleagues. Specifically, we discuss how individual undergraduate researchers contributed and jump-started multiple research themes since the conception of our research laboratory. This work also describes several recent innovations in the inorganic and general chemistry courses taught by Spokoyny at UCLA with a focus of nurturing appreciation for research and creative process in sciences including the use of social media platforms.
这项工作描述了亚历克斯·斯波科伊尼（Alex Spokoyny）及其初级同事在加州大学洛杉矶分校化学与生物化学系本科教学和指导方面的精选故事。具体而言，我们讨论了自我们研究实验室创立以来，个别本科研究人员如何推动并启动了多个研究主题。这项工作还描述了斯波科伊尼在加州大学洛杉矶分校教授无机化学和普通化学课程时的一些近期创新，重点是培养对科学研究和创造过程的欣赏，包括使用社交媒体平台。
