Exploring Protein 3D Structure
Presenting protein structure can be difficult! Take young biologists on a 3-D amino acid adventure with a detailed interactive. Pupils view and manipulate common amino acids individually or as a part of a whole protein. Choose from three...
Concord Consortium
Polarization
This is one cool resource for teaching about polarity! Chemistry scholars observe electron distribution and molecular shape as they select different non-metals and form bonds. The interactive offers two views, surface charge and electron...
Concord Consortium
Factors Affecting London Dispersion Attractions
How can non-polar molecules be attracted to one another? Introduce the phenomenon of London dispersion forces to young chemists through an entertaining interactive. Pupils choose from a variety of molecular shape combinations, then pull...
Concord Consortium
Electron Geometry
It's time to whip your chemistry class into shape! Begin your study of molecular geometry with a colorful, 3-D interactive. The resource shows models of linear, trigonal planar, and tetrahedral molecules.
Concord Consortium
Exploring Hydrophobic Core
How do the hydrophobic and hydrophilic regions of a protein affect its shape? Science scholars explore the molecular properties of protein molecules using a detailed interactive. The resource allows the user to rotate the protein, view...
Learning Games Lab
Understanding Water Activity
How does water activity play a role in food spoilage? First, the learners think about which types of foods would be best to take on a backpacking trip based on the water activity of different foods. It then walks through why water...

Pbs Nova: Rna Virtual Lab
Play the role of a molecular engineer by solving RNA folding puzzles. Then take these new skills to Eterna, and design RNAs that could be at the heart of future life-saving therapies.
Concord Consortium
Concord Consortium: Elements and Polarity
Explore how polarity affects molecular shape and charge.
Concord Consortium
Concord Consortium: Protein Folding
Generate all polar, all nonpolar, or random proteins and observe how the protein folds in response to these molecular properties. Explore how the potential energy of the system changes over time to draw conclusions about how proteins...
