Hands On
Molecular Science

Hands on Molecular Science (HOMS)
was an early molecular study
funded by the National Science
Foundation and executed by
the Concord Consortium.

Molecular Logic

The goal of the Molecular Logic
project is to improve the ability
of all students to understand
fundamental biological phenomena
in terms of the interactions
of atoms and molecules.

Molecular Literacy

The goal of the Molecular Literacy project
is to improve the ability of community
colleges and their associated technical
high schools to prepare students
for careers in biotechnology
and nanotechnology.

Molecular Workbench

The goal of the NSF-funded Molecular
Workbench has been to provide a rich
environment that makes the atomic
level familiar, predictable, and connected
with the macroscopic world, and to
understand the effect of such an
environment on student
learning.

CC Atoms

This project builds on the Molecular
Workbench software, adding models
of chemical reactions and biological
processes to be used in core
science courses and technical
specialty courses in
two year colleges.
