Adaptation of VIPEr learning objects to fit your own courses can often be an interesting undertaking. Many times, instrumentation or software available at your institution is different from that used in an experiment or activity described in the learning object. At other times, additional techniques may be available at your university that you want to incorporate into your own activity. This talk will provide examples of how varius learning objects from the VIPEr website were adapted and incorporated into lecture and lab sections of a first semester inorganic chemistry course taught in Fall 2015 at Bemidji State University, a small primarily undergraduate institution located in northern Minnesota.
