What we would like you to do is surf the web and pick 5 GOOD [in your estimation!] CHEMISTRY web pages and one WebQuest—see info on WebQuest below ARISE TOPICS. These can be web pages you have used with your classes. If you do not know of any sites we have listed some links below. Some sites may no longer be active or may have moved since I made up this page in May. We would prefer you not listing a general chemistry site like AP Central or an education site such as ACS or CHEMMATTERS. Feel free to use the to find content topics you consider useful with students. We would like you to classify the sites according to the 22 ARISE CURRICULUM TOPICS that are listed below. Tell us why these sites are good and how they could be used. Write a brief description and list what you need to view each site- flash, java, etc. You will than email these 5 sites, 1 WebQuest site and brief info. on each to Wade at wfreeman@uic.edu
Wade will put these together on a cd and we will all get a copy

Here is are example:
http://micro.magnet.fsu.edu/moviegallery/chemicalcrystals/coppersulfate/
ARISE #17 Water, Aqueous Solutions
A video of copper sulfate crystallization is observed under polarized light illumination at a magnification of 10x in this video. Playing time is 8.5 seconds. If you do not have microscopes to see the real thing this video does a nice job in showing crystal growth. You will need Real Player at least on a Mac.

ARISE#17 Water, Aqueous Solutions
A nice animation showing the surface phenomenon of dissolving salt, see the “the dissolution of NaCl in aqueous solution.” We can only wave our hands about this in class here we see an animation show what happens on a molecular level. You will need Flash to view this.

WEBQUEST

One of the web sites you review should be a chem WebQuest type. WebQuests can engage students in on-line instruction in various science topics. There is a broad range of what people seem to call WebQuest, from what I call “worksheets on line” to real “quest”. I will ask the people on Monday “if you have or know of real chemistry WebQuest please let us know RIGHT NOW so we can share them with others on Tuesday and Thursday.”

The following site shows integrating the internet into the curriculum using WebQuests as learning activities. This is a nice easy site to start with about WebQuest-- how to make them and use them:

Bernie Dodge, a professor of educational technology at San Diego State University, developed the idea of WebQuest. The word "WebQuest" has become a hot educational technology buzzword. To get much more detail go to:

How to build a website and WebQuest introducing a chemistry concepts:

A list of Chemistry WebQuest Links, some good some not so good:

Below are some examples of WebQuest:
This is a simple internet activity called Atomic Fingerprints. A nice example of an activity they could easily develop in one period:

I like this Spring Break Chemistry -A WebQuest
http://www-dept.usm.edu/~pt3/info/00-03/lesson_plans/plans/extra/013webquest.html

This is Periodic Table WebQuest by my former student teachers, the one who took my place when I left 203, Mr. Martin. It ties in classwork with the WebQuest:
http://www.ncusd203.org/north/depts/science/martin/periodictable_webquest.htm

Another periodic table WebQuest:
http://www.can-do.com/uci/lessons98/Periodic.html

A Nuclear Chemistry WebQuest with more questions than we would require. There are all kinds of ways to make a WebQuest. This is a simple one.

This is PhysicsQuest to learn about the nature and properties of waves. Really it is using one web site and trying to hold the kids accountable for looking at it by asking a series of questions.
http://physicsquest.homestead.com/quest7.html

Investigates the basics of Atomic and Nuclear Physics/Chemistry to learn about the different types of nuclear radiation, nuclear fission and fusion and the principles behind nuclear bombs. I like this site. You have chosen a path for the students to learn about a topic and there are a series of questions to have them turn in a product to see that they have actually visited the sites and perhaps learned something.

So here are some sites you may want to visit:
AP Stuff

AP Chemistry
AP chaper web stuff to use
ap central

Good Power points and links for AP
knowledgebydesign.: quick time movies of chem
MrGreens AP chem Powerpoints & notes: Great note site
OnlineCHemBellevueCommCollege: Great notes and pictures
Power points tom green
Purdue site: help, questions, demos
STM Dancing Atoms
STM Image Gallery - The Corral Reef
STM Image lib.
STM Quick time
STM picture of how works
Scanning Tunneling Microscopy
Westminster: Lots of labs and worksheets + links
