October 2005
This annotated bibliography collects the best that past issues of JCE have to offer for use with this year's National Chemistry Week. Each item has been characterized as an activity, calculation, demonstration, experiment, informational, software/video, Web tutorial, or WebWare item; several fit more than one classification. The most recent articles are listed first. An indication of the levels the article may serve are included.
Below are links to the full text of all articles described in this resource

Chemistry Teacher Connection
The "Chemistry Teacher Connection" (CTC) is especially for high school chemistry teachers. For only $40/year, it offers an online-only subscription to CLIC along with membership in the Division of Chemical Education, normally $65/year. CTC subscribers receive access to all articles and supplements from 1996 through the current issue.
C&EN CLICs
Through special arrangement with the ACS, JCE High School CLIC is now able to provide subscribers with online access to Chemical & Engineering News articles that have been selected specifically for secondary science instructors and their students.
JCE Collections Available
Occasionally, collections of JCE back issues become available for donation to individual teachers, schools, or libraries. JCE matches collections with interested recipients. Recipients pay shipping costs or pick up the collection.
