Science

Are some of your students more concerned with getting their crush's number than learning about Avogadro's? It takes alkynes to make a world, but you can be sure to reach every student with Shmoop's handy resources for science teachers like you.

1. Science Learning Guides

Learning Guides can help you review tricky concepts before teaching a lesson, provide brain-bending questions to ask the class, and be a great supplement to struggling students. Best of all, like neutrons, our Biology and Chemistry Learning Guides are free of charge.

2. Online Courses


Like our Learning Guides? Then you'll love our Courses with a passion more fiery than the surface of the planet Venus. Or... close.

Each course provides complete curriculum for students and guidelines for teachers, plus ideas for activities and experiments. The virtual classroom allows you to monitor student progress, grade assignments, and track class trends. Pick from core courses like Biology, Chemistry, and Physics, or electives like AstronomyDinosaurs, and more.

3. Test Prep

Your precocious pupils may choose to take an AP® Exam or SAT Subject Test™ in the world of science. If so, Shmoop's Test Prep is great way to make sure they walk into that testing center with their head held high.

Each Test Prep product includes in-depth review, diagnostics, targeted drills, and multiple practice exams—all with Shmoop's signature wit.

 

4. Science Career Profiles

Since "become Bill Nye the Science Guy" is an unrealistic (though awesome) career goal, we've come up with some great alternatives for your scientifically-minded students. Each of our career profiles includes information about a typical day, salary expectations, necessary qualifications, and potential for fame and glory.

With science-y options from Aerospace Engineer to Zoologist, your students are bound to find something to pique their interest.

So go ahead: experiment with different resources and see what your class reacts to.
