Visualize the application of chemistry and publish in common websites like youtube Collaboration Collaboration Ramanathan E   |   added on Dec 23, 2010 Let us visualize the important concepts and applications of chemistry and publish in common websites like youtube throughout the year.
Topic: chemistry animation, visuals, youtube movie clips, digital chemistry, chemistry in daily life, chemistry olympiad Audience: teachers, students, chemistry, researchers, chemists, elearning, animation, professors
Computational Chemistry as the domain for modern drug designing Collaboration Collaboration Krishnan Namboori   |   added on Dec 20, 2010 Computational drug designing (CDD) can be considered as the most complex material designing exercise a real computational chemist has to take up. But few drugs have come up in the market as products of CDD.

Making practical experience available Suggestion Suggestion Shahriar Kabir Saki   |   added on Dec 19, 2010 I think practical experience of Chemistry is needed to boost the popularity of the subject. So why not organize small 'Practical Workshops' which would last 2-3 days, may be? Here the visitors will be able to gain practical experience of different easy and low-cost practicals such as filtration, distillation, salt analysis etc
Topic: hands-on activities, workshops, engaging the youth Audience: general public, students, secondary schools, school children, high schools, teachers, primary schools
Try To Titrate This! Suggestion Suggestion A. Garza   |   added on Dec 18, 2010 Relate math and chemistry via titrations, equilibrium constants, dilutions, dissociations, etc. Math emphasis on exponential notation, graphing, reasonableness and simplifying assumptions (with validation at the end). Since pH meters are readily available, predictions should be part of the hands-on-activities.
Topic: hands-on activities Audience: secondary schools
A monthly series on contribution of Chemists/chemical technologists from Goa, India Suggestion Suggestion Nandkumar Kamat   |   added on Dec 16, 2010 I would be writing a series of articles the whole year to create awareness on IYC-2011 in Goa's major 47 years old English news magazine Goa Today which is subscribed in 64 countries. Famous Goan chemists would be introduced to the world.
