HOW IT WORKS

Every lesson takes about five minutes.

See the idea, practice it, get help when you're stuck. Then come back tomorrow, because your streak and your rank are waiting.

    Practice in five questions

    Multiple choice, typed answers and matching, with a hint that nudges instead of giving it away.

  3. Chem Coach explaining why grams are converted to moles

CLASS GAMES

The review game your class will ask for.

Put a live game on the projector. Students join on their phones, split into two teams, and keep their team's reactor stable by answering right. Every answer moves the needle.

Teams vote on a mascot name from their phones.

Student phone after a right answer: points, speed bonus and both team gauges
  • Ready in a minute. Pick a topic or lessons, put the code on the screen, and go.
  • Faster right answers score more. The team behind gets a comeback boost.
  • Quick 5 for the last ten minutes. Keep the reactor in the gold zone and everyone's XP doubles.
SAVE THE REACTOR

A week-long challenge for the whole class.

The class reactor drifts down a little every day. Students keep it stable by practicing on their own time, on any device. Put it on the projector in the morning and watch the class check the score.

  • Two teams, or the whole class against the reactor.
  • Class bonuses unlock when enough classmates play.
  • Stars for keeping it in the green all week.

FOR STUDENTS

Practice that pays off.

Get help the night before the test, earn your way up the ranks, and spend what you earn on real chemistry.

A tutor in your pocket

Ask Chem Coach why, ask how, or ask it to explain it simpler. It shows the steps instead of handing over answers, and can quiz you on what you missed.

Earn quarks. Unlock reactions.

Every 10 XP earns a quark. Spend them in your Lab Locker on flame-test colors, element tiles and reactions like elephant toothpaste and thermite. Spending never lowers your XP.

Climb ten ranks

From Intern to Nuclear Chemist. Your rank shows as electrons orbiting your picture, one more for every rank.
