This site about paper chromatography is organized and the information is presented well -- perhaps making it one of the better sites about paper chromatography.
The Inquiry Page - Inquiry Based Learning
This website provides a thoughtful and well-written introduction to inquiry-based learning methods with a focus on K-12 educators. The website also provides useful information on assessing student learning in an inquiry-based classroom. As such it should be very useful to college and university faculty interested in developing their own inquiry based units.
Chemical Separations
This site contains complete notes in a PowerPoint-like presentation for a chemical separations course. It covers a wide variety of topics, including distillation, extraction, gas chromatography, liquid chromatograpy, chromatography theory, instrumentation, electrophoresis, field flow fractionation, and affinity chromatography. It covers these topics thoroughly using a clear, consistent, and simple presentation style. Links to major topics like GC, LC, and electrophoresis provide specific informa
Lidar Technology and Applications
This course offers an introduction to the capabilities of lidar sensors and platforms, data processing systems, and derived digital data products. Students in this course will master basic skills needed to leverage commercial lidar data sources and information products in a broad range of applications, including topographic mapping, flood inundation studies, vegetation analysis, and 3D modeling of urban infrastructure.
La société des individus ? (video)
Ce programme est le premier chapitre d'un cours de sociologie sur « La société à l'aube du XXIème siècle ». Jean-Yves Trépos, Christelle Stupka et Sabrina Sinigaglia-Amadio nous proposent d'aborder notre société et le passage de siècles par le biais de « la société des individus ». Ils s'appuient sur les réflexions d'auteurs tels que Durkheim, De Singly, Macpherson, Elias et Taylor pour pointer quelques questionnements à propos de l'individu, de l'individualisme, de l'indivi
Entretien avec Geneviève Jacquinot (audio)
Après un CAPES de lettres modernes et un diplôme de cinéma, Geneviève Jacquinot opte pour l'audiovisuel lors de missions en Afrique et à la radio-télévision scolaire. Elle enseigne ensuite au collège expérimental de Marly le Roy dès 1966 puis participe à la création de Paris 8 (Vincennes). Elle poursuit alors une carrière universitaire dans cette université (1).
A partir de ces diverses expériences et de ses recherches, Geneviève Jacquinot a théorisé dans tous les

Interrelationships between the temples of Central Java (video)
A number of suggestions have been made on interrelationships between Central Javanese temples, Borobudur, Pawon, Mendut, Sewu, and Loro Jonggrang. Also, a number of different suggestions have been made to place the monuments chronologically within the framework of Central Javanese history. In this lecture I wish to contribute to the discussions on interrelationships between Central Javanese temples on the basis of a study of the ornamentation adorning the Central Javanese temples.
Chemical Equilibrium in the Gas Phase
This website describes gas phase equilibrium chemistry and provides a tutorial on key concepts like LeChatelier's principal and includes on-line exercises in which the reader can check their understanding. Calculations of equilibrium constants expressed in terms of pressure and concentration are presented. This site will be most useful for high school and introductory university Chemistry courses in which students are developing an understanding of equilibrium chemistry.

The World's Biomes
The World's Biomes, provided by the University California Berkeley's Museum of Paleontology, is an introduction to the earth's ecological regions. Biomes are the world's ecological communities, distinguishable by their predominant vegetation and by the organisms that have adapted to that vegetation. This site provides an introduction to the environmental and ecological features typical of various aquatic, desert, forest, grassland, and tundra biomes. Users can read about the planet's ecosystems,
WebSpectra - Problems in NMR and IR Spectroscopy
This web site provides thirty beginning, twenty-nine intermediate, and sixteen advanced NMR structure analysis problems and their solutions. For every unknown a proton and a carbon spectrum are provided. Many of the more advanced problems contain COSY and DEPT spectra as well. A particularly useful feature of this site is that the user can zoom into spectral regions in all of the spectra.
An Eye on Food
This C and E News cover story from July 2005 introduces readers to the concept of quality control in food analysis for food safety with an emphasis on the application of near-infrared (NIR) and encoded photometric infrared (EP-IR) spectroscopy, Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry (FT ICR MS), and microchip analysis. This article would be of potential use to faculty teaching any of these topics in their classroom.
Notes on Bioanalytical Chemistry Lectures
Short lecture notes and support materials for a course in bioanalytical chemistry. Examples of topics covered include isolating and sequencing DNA, DNA chips, data reduction and analysis, biochemistry on the micro to nano scale, genomics and proteomics, and biochemical ethics.
What does life need?
Here's an interactive exercise about the needs of all living things. The introduction explains that scientists can use the knowledge of life requirements to guide their search for life on Mars. Players identify which of these six items are necessary for life: sunlight, oxygen, water, meat, energy, and raw materials. If any wrong answers are given, players are shown the number of correct answers and are given access to Learn More buttons. All the Learn More sections are similar. In them, players
Fist-fighting financiers
Martial arts clubs across London beat the recession, as workers in the capital's financial sector swap suits for sports like cage fighting
forall x: Introductory Textbook in Formal Logic
This book is an introduction to sentential logic and first-order predicate logic with identity, logical systems that significantly influenced twentieth-century analytic philosophy. After working through the material in this book, a student should be able to understand most quantified expressions that arise in their philosophical reading.
Aerial View York Road
Undated. This view looks N/E across York Road towards Harehills. There are several cars and trucks driving along the road. Along the centre of the road can be seen a double row of tram lines.
