Swamp Thing

Don't have an electron microscope? Have your classes build the next best thing! A hands-on lesson asks scholars to build a model of Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM). They then use their models to identify the function of each...

Where does an electron reside? Chemistry scholars determine an electron's "address," that is, what orbital it can be found in. This resource is both instructional and practical,  providing a thorough explanation of energy levels and...

Electrons could never be Bohring! The presentation covers where you find electrons in an atom. It begins with the Bohr Model, then moves on to the Heisenberg Principle and orbital shapes. It concludes with the concept of electron spin...

If you need a clarification of the electron transport chain for your pupils, then this slide show will be a great help. There are nice images of the membranes and elaborations of chemiosmosis which will provide learners support with...

Tiny transistors have a big job to do in all of our electronic devices ... so, how do they work? Discover the chemistry and physics behind semiconductive elements such as silicon through an intriguing video from Veritasium's playlist....

Can you build a homemade speaker out of a potato chip? Bestselling author and do-it-yourself expert William Gurstelle shows you how in his brief presentation at TEDYouth 2012. He encourages young people to be creative and explore science...

Build on your scholars' basic understanding of valence electrons by showing them how to use valence electrons to predict formations of ionic bonds. The informative video includes an explanation of how lattice energy attributes to the...

Scholars build specific elements by creating a model of its atomic structure. Objects they can include are protons, nuetrons, electrons, orbits, clouds, charge, and mass number. Simulation ends with questions to challenge individuals'...

Why is the periodic table arranged the way it is? As pupils complete the electron configuration of the first 20 elements, they see the relationship to the rows and columns in the periodic table. The video instructor highlights these...

Imagine 1.7 billion transistors in one tiny chip running all the operations in a microprocessor. Now imagine that that number doubles every two years. Learn all about transistors in this short video that provides easy to understand...
