Target audience

The material in this program is geared towards students studying Physical Chemistry at the High School and Advanced Placement level.

Users: teachers

As a Science professor it is your duty to successfully impart important and complex scientific concepts to students. Use the power of interactive multimedia to motivate your students and provide them with a clearer understanding of ideas that were once more difficult to explain.

  Promote the idea of more frequent individual study among your students
    and encourage them  to explore various concepts and topics at their
    own pace.

  The many 3-D animations facilitate the explanation of complex ideas and
     provides students with helpful visual representations.

  Non-lionear structure of the tutorial allows you  the option of easily
   skipping to desired sections.

  Give your students access to multimedia learning  tools that can help
     your online course environments go beyond simply posting comments
     and communicating with others.

  Accompany in-class lectures with a display of both graphics and text by
    using a conventional overhead projector. This can be easier and more
    effective than writing notes on a blackboard.

  MCH tutorials contain many good ideas for  possible exam questions

 

Users: Students

As a student, your main goals are to develop a comprehensive understanding of the central ideas in your chemistry and physics classes, and of course to get good grades. Our programs can be used as a great study and review tool for midterm and final exams.

  The review sections are excellent for brushing up on
    previously learned concepts

  The holistic overview of the subject matter helps put new
     ideas into a meaningful context.

  The interactive exercises allow you to truly engage and
     immerse yourself in the information.  You can actively
     construct your own body of  knowledge.

  The visual representations can provide you with an additional
     way of understanding some of the most challenging academic
     content you will encounter in your academic career.

  Quizzes and feedback provide you with an opportunity to
     assess your learning progress.

 

Program Features

The program takes advantage of multimedia technology to present teachers and students with a new way of approaching and understanding the challenging concepts and ideas found in Physical Chemistry.

User-friendly interface allows for
   easy navigation

  Flexible plotting, drag & drop and
    other interactive exercises

  Convenient pull down calculator,
    glossary, key word searches, note
    pad, periodic table and many
    tables of useful data

  Quizzes with step-by-step
feedback

  Hundreds of 3-D visual demonstrations,
    movies, animations and sound effects

  Many concise voice comments help
    to emphasize key concepts

  Over 200 hours of study material on
    each CD compiled by renowned
    McGill professor Dr.  Bryan
    Sanctuary
