interactive and animated - ACTT is like a set of really useful colour slides - except that these ones move and they're controllable. When shown with a computer projector, large display or whiteboard, they help students to visualise the concepts and chemicals of organic chemistry.

mechanisms - animated slides illustrate mechanisms as and when you need them. The hand crafted step-by-step animation lets you talk it through as you need to. Curved arrows pre-empt which electrons will 'move'.  A smart slider gives you control and repeats a step interactively. Here is electrophilic addition, and the rest, at their best.

experiments - let students forget this is chemistry, we show equations beside their reagents. As they'd need when revising or revisiting, they see them heated or otherwise without need for goggles or gas masks. The experiments are here for teachers too - with no smells evident - here is safety discussion fuel.

models - featured all through are 3D industry-standard 'MDL Chime models' that form the fabric of chemistry on the world wide web. As in universities and industry, you can measure the models, move them and see them beside their 2D friends. Our tutorial gives you the skills you need in a minute. We use 'Chime' to compare isomers, show a functional group or 'see' electron density and hydrogen bonding. The models work just as they do on the web - so you can save them to a file and manipulate them further. A short installation makes your computer ready for ACTT, and ready to use the countless models on the web.

fast - life is busy enough - each of these lovely interactives take minutes of lesson time. Use it, make the point and then do what you normally do.

easy - you will not need a manual to teach with our software. Just click the red items - each time you click 'red', we drive the animation to the next step. This focuses attention and lets you concentrate on the chemistry.   

challenging puzzles for students - ACTT is an interactive tool to visualise chemistry as you discuss each slide. Let the students use it - ask them to play teacher and enjoy how well they take to the challenge.  Read on for more about this in  teaching
