Visualization, animation, simulation etc. can provide enormous help in
understanding, particularly those concepts which are difficult to see or imagine.
This will value add for both the student and the teacher thereby improving teaching
learning processes. In the 1st phase, a sample chapter from Chemistry for class XI
was taken up. From the project we have been able to develop a model for on line
support to the curriculum. The present project will adapt this model to the entire
Sr. Secondary curriculum in Chemistry. The product which will be in form of a
linked set of web based resources be deployed on the NCERT website. The web
sections will be interactive and seek feed back from the users.
