DESCRIPTION
This web-site has a huge number of educational materials. It is a private company for educational products and it has a special agreement with the Ministry of National Education and most of the material on this site are open to public. Registration is not needed for most of the material it has. But, registration on this site is free and it has some more advantages to track the new material on the site.

This web-site has all of the lessons of primary and secondary education as well as chemistry. It has a huge variety of educational materials like interactive activities, samples, modeling, videos, e-texts, exercises etc.

Chemistry lesson materials are grouped under the following headings:
Development of Chemistry
Chemical changes
Compounds
Mixtures
Chemistry in our life
Structure of Atom
Periodical system

Contents of this web-site are highly reliable and very well-quality in terms of scientific and pedagogical manners. There are many interactive educational materials that can attract students attention to chemistry. The interactive materials are easy to use and colorful.

In addition, there are many videos about the use of chemistry in everyday life situations. The videos are clear and easy to understand the general and basic uses of chemistry.
In this site, solutions of some chemistry exercises and problems are demonstrated. The students can understand the basic solutions of many problems about various topics of chemistry.

Many of the activities are aiming at making the connection of chemistry with everyday life applications and phenomena. In this way, the material aims to increase student motivation to learn and study chemistry and science in general.

The educational materials are designed for classroom use and the topics are very well grouped for the grades and lessons in the regular curriculum of Turkey. Some educational technologies like computers, overhead projectors etc. are needed to use in regular classroom environments.
COMMENTS
This web-site is specially designed for students, teachers, parents and other stakeholders of education by experts of each field. The material is scientifically reliable and it covers a wide range of activities, videos, interactive materials and solutions to problems about chemistry subjects in the regular curriculum. Especially interactive materials on the site are very useful for classroom and everyday use. They are very attractive for students that they can learn by themselves without being bored. The interactive materials are also very useful for teachers to use in their teaching. The materials can not be downloaded. So, internet connection is needed to use in the classroom. The only weakness of the web-site is the need for registration for some few materials.
