Learning Tools and Modules

Elemnet : Educational LEarning Media on the Net

This is a project that was started several years ago as a structure for many of the educational projects that we were building through student summer projects (high school and undergraduate contributions), as well as lecture materials for computational chemistry. While far from completed as a whole, there are some interesting modules that are completed:
... Periodic Table of Elements
... Functional Group Table
... Introduction to Gas Laws
... Basic Statistical Mechanics
... Chemistry Glossary

Guide to Parallel Computing

The guide provides you an introduction on the uses and the concepts of parallel computing.

Introduction to kinetics

The goal of this module is to provide the basic background of the chemical reactivity and kinetics behind smog. Tutorials and examples will help you discover this area of chemistry.

Quantum Chemistry in the Environment

This module will introduce you to how quantum mechanical calculations can be used to investigate chemical processes. An online portal to the program GAMESS is used to run calculations and explore commonly used methods for computing. Examples are given for several molecules that are in the environment.

The kinetics of smog

This module will help you get a better understanding of the mathematical models encountered in studying chemical kinetics. You will find many tutorials to help you in your learning.

Structural Comparison of Opiates

This module was developed as supplementary material for a class in pharmaceutical science at the University level. The module provides visual aids and additional historical materials about opiates. You will find animations and 3D modules and difference plots for these molecule types.
