Some materials on the Internet are very useful. Some materials have questionable value. It's important to evaluate resources you access on the Internet. One good guide for doing so is Evaluating Internet Resources . You are first going to use a Subject Directory .
Subject directories provide lists of selected Internet sites.
None of the search engines cover all of the Internet, so it's useful to use several. A special chemistry project headed by Dr. Harry Ungar here at Cabrillo is creating Web-based, visualization information about chemical molecules. A Netscape plug-in called Chime makes it possible to view molecular structures in a variety of ways. A tutorial about how to use Chime is posted to the Cabrillo College Chemistry Department Web site. In the next part of this worksheet, you are going to explore how to use Chime.
