One of 24 subject
based centres working to encourage the use of learning technologies in UK higher education. Offers news, software reviews, and software catalogues.
 
Set of annotated links to online courses, course descriptions, tutorials, assignments, tests and other materials used in the teaching of chemistry.
 
Aims to contain a comprehensive list of chemistry textbooks and pedagogical software currently available, in categories that correspond with typical curricula. Includes authors, publishers, dates of publication, number of pages, ISBN, and approximate list prices of textbooks, as well as references to reviews of texts and software and journal listings.
 
Set of lectures notes for a US undergraduate chemistry course. Topics include molecular visualization, guides to chemical information sources and databases, searching for chemical and physical properties of substances, and searching for the synthesis of specific compounds or classes of compounds.
 
Reference manual for chemistry students, with suggestions for writing lab notes, lectures, short reports, full research reports, and oral presentations. Also offers advice on searching databases and online facilities such as BIDS, Chemical Abstracts, and the Internet.
 
Links to university chemistry departments in the UK.
 
Collection of historical papers arranged alphabetically and by subject group, including environmental chemistry, gases, periodic table and periodic law, radioactivity and the nucleus, and thermodynamics.
 
Collection of tutorials, with diagrams and illustrations, covering the structure of metallic surfaces, absorption of molecules, the Langmuir Isotherm, UHV and the effects of gas pressure, and surface imaging and depth profiling.
 
Offers original articles and features about chemistry, plus annotated links to selected relevant Internet resources compiled by a subject specialist, a subject
specific bulletin board, and details of related news and events. Topics include analytical chemistry, atomic structure, biochemistry, chromatography, crystallography, electrochemistry, plastics and polymers, and spectroscopy.
 
Details of textbooks in the field of chemistry, browsable by subject or searchable by title, author, or publisher. Includes software products with brief descriptions.
 
A large index to over 7500 chemistry resources on the Web, featuring a collaborative effort to index international university chemistry department Web servers. Includes lists of departments, companies, organisations, journals and reference material. Links are added monthly and update bulletins are available.
 
Series of weekly fact sheets providing information about specific chemicals or groupings, intended to increase students' knowledge about chemical substances, their production, cost, and uses.
 
Searchable glossary and encyclopaedia of chemistry terms.
 
Links to university chemistry departments around the world.
 
Interdisciplinary research centre for aspects of polymer, random, and fractal systems which develops experimental and computational materials for school and undergraduate education.
 
Collection of biographies of influential chemists, arranged by categories which include colloids, electrochemistry, nuclear chemistry, spectroscopy and the discovery of elements.
 
Offers examples and suggestions of how computers can be useful in teaching chemistry. Includes illustrations of graphical solutions to equations, simple atomic orbitals, structures of various organic molecules (illustrating some concepts in conformational analysis), nucleic acids (with simulation of DNA Movement) and amino acids (with simulation of Crambin Movement).
 
Guide to oxidation
reduction, including ionic compounds, electronegativity and redox reactions. Offers exercises and refers to everyday examples such as bleaching agents, photosynthesis and electrochemistry.
 
Detailed course description with three main sections: crystallography, crystal chemistry, and silicate mineralogy.
 
Set of annotated links to online courses, course descriptions, tutorials, assignments, tests and other materials used in the teaching of chemical engineering.
 
A collection of resources and links for chemistry teaching, including test question banks, demonstration sheets, laboratory information, and sections on general, organic, and inorganic chemistry.
 
A peer
reviewed working journal which focuses on the United States college and university chemistry curriculum. The classroom and laboratory materials needed for implementation, including detailed instructions, actual student handouts, student data, computer files, and safety and disposal instructions are also available online at the time of publication.
 
The learned society for chemistry and the professional body for chemists in the UK with 46,000 members worldwide. It is a major publisher of chemical information, supports the teaching of chemistry at all levels, organises hundreds of chemical meetings a year and is a leader in communicating science to the public.
 
Full illustrated periodic table complete with key data (symbol, atomic number, atomic weight, group number, CAS registry ID), description, chemical data, physical data, crystal structure, isotopes, electronic, biological and geological data for every element. Elements 113
118 are included in the table at their expected positions.
 
Searchable collection of chemistry resources including articles, tutorials, an index of Web based material, a glossary featuring audio pronunciations, an online questioning service, and a database of compounds with details of atomic numbers, and boiling and melting points.
 
International science education course. Graphical and hypertext material for the course has been supplied by 30 experts in protein structure, many of whom also contribute to email discussions and tutorials. Winner of the 1996 UCISA award for promoting good practice in the use of the Web within the UK higher education sector.
 
Collection of notes and exercises covering the fundamental concepts of acid
base chemistry, aimed at first year university students with no prior experience of the topic.
 
Links to university chemistry departments worldwide, organised by country. Each entry is checked monthly.
