A Workshop Summary to the Chemical Sciences Roundtable. A group of chemists, chemical engineers, and others from academia, government, and industry participated in a workshop sponsored by the Chemical Sciences Roundtable to explore how bioinspired chemistry can help solve some of the important energy issues the world faces today. The workshop featured presentations and discussions on the current energy challenges and how to address them, with emphasis on both the fundamental aspects and the robu more...

This online full course being published by MIT OCW features complete sets of lecture notes and assignments. The objective of this course is to introduce large-scale atomistic modeling techniques and highlight its importance for solving problems in modern engineering sciences. We demonstrate how atomistic modeling can be used to understand how materials fail under extreme loading, involving unfolding of proteins and propagation of cracks.

ADSL houses annotated links to more than 300 sites about chemical measurements and instruments. Aimed at high school through professional levels, the offerings include class notes, tutorials, simulations, and protocols. To help teachers share ideas, the site also posts original content, such as a complete lab manual and other peer-reviewed contributions. Online forums let users discuss how to integrate the materials into class. Edited by Cynthia Larive of the University of California, Riverside.

The Oxford VR Group is developing a three-dimensional simulated laboratory for the teaching of chemistry. This laboratory will be modelled using virtual reality techniques and it will contain interactive multimedia experiments.
Essentially, the student will be able to move around the lab in a web browser window and choose to take part in experiments that are distributed around this virtual lab.
Each experiment will make use of the latest multimedia technology. This will include:

Part of a series of free high school textbooks prepared by the government of Kerala, India for its students. Sets forth the basic principles of chemistry.

The Internet is an ideal vehicle for communicating ideas and information rapidly, conveniently, and cost-effectively. The University of Califonia, Berkeley currently maintains a full featured, media rich Internet web site known as Digital Chem 1A that supplements our freshman general chemistry course. In addition to Berkeley students, our server records show that students from other universities currently use Digital Chem 1A to supplement their campus' general chemistry courses. We have also rec more...

The Chemistry Collective is a collection of virtual labs, scenario-based learning activities, and concepts tests which can be incorporated into a variety of teaching approaches as pre-labs, alternatives to textbook homework, and in-class activities for individuals or teams. It is organized by a group of faculty and staff at Carnegie Mellon University for college and high school teachers who are interested in using, assessing, and/or creating engaging online activities for chemistry education.
