The Catalyst: Chemistry Resources for Teachers

This is quite a large site with links for several branches of chemistry, a teacher's forum containing "excellent lessons, activities, [and] laboratory exercises for your students that may benefit other teachers and students" (including some using computers in the chemistry classroom, a list of High School Web Sites, a Q & A section for problems with chemistry, a list of conferences for high school chemistry teachers, and a job listing for chemistry teachers. The material in this site is useful for any chemistry teacher. The list of links alone is incredible. This is a must-see for any chemistry teacher.

    ChemCases.com

    ChemCases.com is a web-based resource of curriculum supplements for teaching the second semester general chemistry course. Each case study features a number of the basic principles covered in a traditional general chemistry curriculum. We use these concepts to address the decisions that influence development of successful consumer, agricultural and pharmaceutical products. ChemCases.com is a series of curriculum units that link responsible decision making in product development with chemical principles taught in General Chemistry. We expect ChemCases.com curriculum supplements will lead interested students toward the sciences, medicine, pharmacy and engineering by: Why ChemCases? ChemCases provide immediate relevancy -- an instant linkage between familiar products and events and the chemistry underlying their existence. ChemCases explain the benign and explore the controversial, raising our science of chemistry into the mainstream of the flow of decision making.

    Science Resource Center

    This is an amazing site for both Chemistry and Biology teachers! It includes complete lesson plans, demonstrations and extra links and information. The demonstrations include pictures, animations, instructions and background information. The labs also contain background information, as well as pre and post lab questions for students to complete. There are also teacher's tips where one can find shorter activities for the classroom that pertain to difficult to teach subjects. Finally, there are many miscellaneous activities and readings to be found, stuff to have fun with!!!
