Science-focused educational site offers cool homework help.
Parents need to know that this educational Web site, developed by an advanced government physics lab, provides in-depth science and mathematics lessons and games aimed at high school students and older. They cover electricity, magnetism and other topics, but the main focus is chemistry, including the periodic table, chemical equations, and the basic structure of atoms. The explanations are clear and simple, and the interactive features will help students understand some tough concepts. Still, the activities are not as fun as other gaming and entertainment Web sites; think of this as a cool homework aid rather than a destination site for recreation.
