Message: Obviously the main aims of this online magazine are:
1. To allow researchers to publish their reports in the field of Chemistry;
2. To provide virtual space for teachers, where they can share effective ideas and methods of teaching and studying Chemistry;
3. To provide online access for students who are particularly interested in acquiring knowledge in Chemistry and Ecology.
The fulfillment of these three basic goals by the magazine creators completes the educational cycle and bridges researchers and ordinary users, namely teachers and students.
This makes the magazine rather beneficial for a large number of people, working and studying at different levels in the field of Chemistry.
The magazine contents offer a wealth of knowledge and experiments in Chemistry and Ecology. Despite its academic language, it could contribute to attracting the average student's interest in Chemistry. The great variety of articles and the magazine blog are likely to trigger curiosity on the part of students.
Reading this magazine gives students another opportunity to access scientific information about Chemistry at a high level. In the online magazine one can read articles about organic Chemistry, inorganic Chemistry, etc.The magazine provides access to electronic information for all vocational students training for Chemistry-related jobs. Thus the information is easily accessible for students and makes up for the lack of specialised course books, which is a great disadvantage of the educational system. Having said all this, I believe that reading this magazine would help students to comprehend the Chemistry lessons more easily and quickly.
The electronic magazine offers an innovative approach to teaching Chemistry and Science. There teachers can find articles on innovative solutions of problems related to education as well as to modern methods of presenting chemical information in an easily comprehensible way.
The relatively high level of the magazine allows for its active use as a source of extra curriculum activities (creating Chemistry websites, Chemistry and Ecology projects, etc.)
The only hindrance to the information offered by this online magazine is the users' level of English, which may vary.
This magazine is fascinating reading and would definitely benefit teachers and students alike during their self-study.
It also provides an interdisciplinary link, which is useful for students.
The wealth and variety of information offered by the online magazine would lead to increasing students' motivation for studying Chemistry profoundly and would challenge their curiosity and innovative spirit.
National Reports on successful experiences to promote lifelong learning for chemistry The national reports on chemistry successful experiences to promote lifelong learning for chemistry are now available on the related section of the project portal. The reports presents examples of successful experiences in the partner countries and the results of testing of ICT resources with science teachers.
