I needed a clean, scalable (vector)graphic of fleming’s left hand rule that I could freely use in my resources, so resorted to drawing my own. I thought I would share it. If anyone would like to use the editable SVG version or postscript or EPS etc, contact me.

I made a wacky interactive widget thingy to illustrate the gas laws. Change the property with the slider and it draws the graph. Just for fun really. A preview may be seen on my web site. Please note: in order to provide a rich interactive experience, my interactive resources are mini-web sites local to your computer. After unzipping, they comprise a folder containing the main .html file and another folder containing the graphic resources and my coding to make the resource work. Double click on the .html file and the resource will work. If, however , you move or delete any of the files from this hierarchy, the resource will not work. stdobbs.com ©D&D production

Electronic configuration and atomic structure Drag & Drop

A Drag & Drop exercise for building up the electronic structure of atoms. After a short cartoon for building up an atom of calcium, students build up four atoms by drag and drop. Could be used projected on the whiteboard or by students individually at computers. Double click on the full atomic structure.html file and it will open in your browser. I made it big for projection, but it can be made smaller by zooming out using the browser zoom control.

I made a crazy video about hydrolysing water with a hofmann voltameter Note: the youtube version is free. I only put a price on the download because you have to do that for the resource to appear on TES pages.

Word searches help concentrate on scientific literacy and aid concentration. they are good summary activities and for revision. I have tried to make these attractive and efficacious in that they use only one side of A4. A solution is provided for each.
