SITE PURPOSE: EDUCATION - online learning or 'self-private-tuition' using revision notes, quizzes, practice SAT/SATs test/tests. KS3 SCIENCE Y7 (Year 7), Y8 (Year 8), Y9 (Year 9) Biology-Chemistry-Physics exams. REVISING at Doc Brown's Chemistry Clinic via HOMEPAGE in secondary school/schools, college/colleges, academy/academies or home self-study and may help with 1st year undergraduate university chemistry courses. Hopefully it will encourage interest and understanding of Chemistry and Earth Science in any country of the world, though the site is written entirely in English. The website is designed to help students/teachers revise, learn or teach the chemistry for English National QCA criteria assessment levels for KS3 SATs Science-biology/chemistry/physics (SAT revision levels 3-5 or 5-7 examinations) for secondary schools and colleges. The site does not support the content of England, Wales or Northern Ireland primary science for KS1 and KS2, nor does it support KS3 English and Mathematics (Maths). The notes should 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.
