Description This short paper presents a method for teaching undergraduates (and advanced high school students) how to predict whether a given ion will flow into a cell or out of a cell under any given conditions. The method thus helps students understand how electrical gradients and electrical gradients might work with each other or against each other in driving ion flows.
