all the internet-broadband and web hosting fees and hopefully a new faster
computer in the future and I try to ensure that most adverts in the
science-chemistry sections concern educational
material.
UK school year Y7 to Y9, the chemistry and earth science
for SAT's
- Usual minimum age UK 11-14, USA grades
6-8, Australia Y7-8? Caribbean Integrated Science Grades 7-8, Hong Kong
Forms 1-3
multi-word fill work sheets, multiple choice
quizzes and crossword puzzles etc.
UK KS4 Y10 to Y11 (and = IGCSE) chemistry, earth science and
radioactivity

9-10, Australia Y9-10?, Chemistry of the Caribbean Secondary Education
Certificate (CSEC) Grades 9, 10, 11, Hong Kong HKCEE Form 4 and Form 5
summary of support for the chemistry, earth science and radioactivity
for any individual UK syllabus for AQA, Edexcel, OCR, CCEA or WJEC gcse science or
chemistry syllabus
basic revision notes for most GCSE or IGCSE chemistry topics in single,
double or triple award science or chemistry (should be complete by end
of Jan 2004)
Earth science page (links to www, cue Q and answer notes)
multiple choice and multiple completion tests (usually for UK HT and FT
entry level)
single short answer tests (usually for HT and FT chemical calculations)
structured questions
multi-word fill exercises - a bit cumbersome on-line but can be
printed out with word list (for white background, make sure internet
printer settings are such that 'background colour' is NOT printed)
crosswords - a bit cumbersome on-line but there are 'printing out'
versions (for black background, make sure internet printer settings are
such that 'background colour' WILL BE printed)
Matching pair exercises (simple short exercises - handy at start or end
of a lesson for summary or review purposes)
Just a few exercises so far with jumbled sentences
UK GCE AS (usually minimum Y12) and A2 (usually minimum Y13) level Organic,
Inorganic and Theoretical Physical Chemistry
- this area is relatively
under-developed on the site but this will change over the next 1-2 years.

SITE PURPOSE EDUCATION - online learning or 'self-private-tuition' using
revision notes, quizzes, practice tests involving GCSE Science CHEMISTRY in the
areas of REVISING only the CHEMISTRY-Earth Science-Radioactivity at Doc Brown's
Chemistry Clinic via HOMEPAGE in secondary school/schools, Year 10, Year 11,
Year 12, Year 13, upper/lower 6th form college/colleges, academy/academies or
home self-study. Hopefully it will encourage interest and understanding of the
KS4 Science Chemistry, Earth Science and Radioactivity in any country of the
world, though the site is written entirely in English. The website is designed
to help and unofficially support students/teachers revise-learn/teach the
chemistry for modular or co-ordinated examination science courses from UK QCA
based AQA, OCR (Oxford and Cambridge) Twenty First (21st) Century and Gateway
Science, Edexcel 360 Science , Nuffield, Salters, Cambridge International (CIE),
London International, WJEC, CCEAscience exams etc. Also, national award
assessments-examinations for GCE-AS-A2-IBGCSE-IGCSE-KS4-O level-BTEC-NVQ
applied, additional and chemistry national science courses. Also covers, mainly
via quizzes the UK National KS3 Science-biology/chemistry/physics (SAT
revision levels 3-5 or 5-7 for KS3 science Year 7, year 8 and year 9) and covers
much of the revising, learning and teaching chemistry examinations for the
national curriculum for secondary schools and colleges. The site does not
support the content of England, Wales or Northern Ireland primary science KS1 or
KS2. The notes should also provide some background theory for a coursework
assignment or project. BUT please note that my on-line revision notes and
quizzes are no substitute for good classroom teaching-lecturing and thorough
studying of your own notes and textbooks, practicing past papers and a copy of
the syllabus which are readily downloaded from the examination board sites, but
I hope here and there they will lend a tutoring hand on some topic, unit, module
etc. For final revision you have to be intellectually honest about what you
don't know or follow, YOU have to take the stuff to pieces, analyse what you
do/do not understand and reconstruct it so it all makes sense in the end. There
is no other way, there are no magic secrets on how to revise and learn, its
mainly down to hard work and just good old fashioned study and employing
teach-yourself strategies without the need for extra tutors and tutoring
lessons. I also think there is too much hit and miss revision using past papers
(which I do NOT supply) and not enough systematic revision. I also hope it will
help teachers in planning lessons and developing schemes of work for
science-chemistry. There are no lesson plans on the site but there are plenty of
quizzes to incorporate into classroom activities whether photocopied or on
electronic whiteboard projector for use as self-tuition-assessment purposes and
a variety of teaching and learning styles and the images may be used in
Microsoft Word documents and powerpoint projections. The site seems to be used
by a large number of home study tutors, particularly the revision notes. An
individual tutor may print out the notes for science-chemistry learning
teaching-tuition purposes and for background material for assignments and
projects. I have no interest or time in producing WORD.doc or xxxx.pdf files of
the notes at the moment. Neither have I time to write up many practical
laboratory experiments ('lab'-'labs') at the moment, but the notes contain lots
of background information of chemical reactions in terms of
observations-balanced equations-reactants-products-theory etc. I also find it
difficult to recommend specific exam websites or syllabus textbooks, it depends
exactly on what you need, what you have time for, and there are so many of them
to choose from and I do not supply past examination papers. Dr W P Brown
