General Chemistry (College) (P...

Learning at your own pace with this eBook.  All the topics covered in college-level and first-year university General Chemistry courses and AP (Advanced Programs in High School). Chemical processes are presented with clear verbal descriptions and instructions.  Plot results and enjoy learning from simulations.

General Chemistry can be used in conjunction with any introductory chemistry textbook, or stand-alone.

To help you understand both the basic and the most challenging topics found in Chemistry, our tutorial software provides over 200 hours of study and uses the advantages of the computer giving simulations, narration, animations, and colorful graphics.

Teacher-student           Target audience

• Covers all the traditional and modern topics in Organic Chemistry in undergraduate science programs.
• We encourage sales to Universities, Institutions and Home Groups by providing Volume Discounts (found in step 2 above). These provide even greater savings over our already low prices, compared to hard copy textbooks.

Users: teachers

• 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-linear 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 subject matter helps put new ideas into a meaningful context. You will understand the broader concepts by studying the details.
• 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.
