DESCRIPTION
The prerequisites
Basic concepts on chemistry and physics for superior secondary school.

·The contents
Plenty of contents in scientific topics: statistics, mathematical analysis, geometry, chemistry, physics, quantomechanics, nuclear physics.The menu is composed of pages equipped with links and applets related to the corresponding matter. Each of them is divided in the following sections: “introduction”, “things to do” (to see the applet functioning), “what happens” (explication of the phenomena), “comments”, “links and applets related”, “author”, “title”, “website”, research of pages carrying other links referred to the same matter.By opening links and applets, the pages appear ordered in an exhaustive list according to the chosen topic with recall to other links or scientific websites.

The aims
To represent the best of the material available on web for the teaching of scientific topics.

Task Description
The activities are corresponding to the applets employ.

How to use it in class
By taking into account the tremendous plenty of resources in the different scientific disciplines, it can be use in class for chemistry and physics courses in order to describe and visualize a large variety of related phenomena.
COMMENTS
·Points of strength
-Plenty of resources.
- Easy consultation.
- Clear, exhaustive explication of applets meaning and employ.
- Careful references (authors and websites).·

Points of weakness
It is difficult to find any ones.

Scientific reliability
Excellent.

Pedagogic value
The pedagogic value relies in the teachers ability to take advantage of the resource in different didactic courses, by adapting its employ to the need of the moment.In addition, the students can use the resource for personal deepening.
