Educational Resources
Interactive 3D animations and structures, with supporting information for some of the most important topics covered during an undergraduate chemistry degree. From the University of Liverpool, U.K.
Provided by the American Chemical Society (ACS) and the Journal of Chemical Education (JCE). The ChemEd DL offers browsable access to multiple collections and services from the the Journal of Chemical Education DLib and the American Chemical Society Education Division. ChemEd DL creates news communities centered around different education levels (e.g. undergraduate), provides resources in different sub-disciplines of chemistry (e.g. physical, inorganic), and different pedagogical areas.
Incorporate the history of the chemistry and the molecular sciences into the classroom with these online resources from CHF.
The Journal of Chemical Education (JCE) Web-Ready collection includes many useful instructional software programs that have been converted for use in a standard web-browser environment. Access to items in this collection is restricted to JCE Web Software subscribers.
MERLOT is a leading edge, user-centered, searchable collection of peer reviewed and selected higher education, online learning materials, catalogued by registered members and a set of faculty development support services. MERLOT's vision is to be a premiere online community where faculty, staff, and students from around the world share their learning materials and pedagogy.
This site provides annotated Web links to instructional materials and other resources of interest to Chemistry teachers and course designers. The links are carefully selected to represent what this author considers to be the most useful and exemplary Web-accessible resources that others can draw upon for ideas and materials.
The resources contained within this web site are designed to help students learn concepts of molecular symmetry and to help faculty teach concepts of molecular symmetry. The materials are designed for a variety of levels. Resources are grouped into three broad categories: Symmetry Tutorial, Symmetry Gallery, and Symmetry Challenge.
