I made a very simple, very introductory presentation on redox reactions. It is intended to be totally entry level.

I made a crazy interactive widget thingy to illustrate the limiting factor graphs for photosynthesis. Just for fun really. Project it onto the whiteboard perhaps. Make it huge using the browser zoom controls. I hope that it entertains you. Please note: in order to provide a rich interactive experience, my interactive resources are mini-web sites local to your computer. After unzipping, they comprise a folder containing the main .html file and another folder containing the graphic resources and my coding to make the resource work. Double click on the .html file and the resource will work. If, however , you move or delete any of the files from this hierarchy, the resource will not work.

I made an infographic about mrs gren, then turned it into an activity by removing the answers. 2 pages. Very simple, but quirky and therefore memorable. That’s my style.

I recently downloaded the RSC’s very useful “education in chemistry” resource on titrations. The documents are beautifully produced, but I was appalled that the “diagram” column in the equipment tables were low resolution bitmapped graphics. I thought I would produce my own simple diagrams in vector form, so that they can be used at any scale without pixellation. I provide this as a pdf which you can copy and paste from freely, but if you need SVG files , please feel free to contact me via my web site. They may be of use to someone, somewhere.
