We are a group of science and technology educators committed to using the Internet to make learning exciting and enjoyable. Since hands-on experiments are essential to learning science and technology, we have several plans to integrate our Internet presentation with challenging hands-on labs.

Our courses range from elementary to advanced - K through university. Some courses are designed for particular industries to help employees upgrade their skills. Each course consists of a sequence of lessons. Each lesson contains appropriate text, pictures, graphics, sound and web links. Many of these lessons describe empirical methods of verification such as observation or experiments. For experiments, each lesson will give instructions how to construct or use lab equipment. We will also sell lab kits from this site. Generally, experiments for elementary courses may be performed with easy to obtain materials while advanced courses require more complex lab equipment.

To insure that each experiment is performed safely, all experiments will begin by examining all necessary precautions. Many experiments can be performed in schools or at home. Some experiments in elementary courses will advise adult supervision. Courses taught in industry may require labs that can only be performed with equipment special to that industry. Often these labs should be performed under the guidance of supervisors or other professionals. In such cases, courses will be accompanied with instructor guides.

We are constantly searching for instructors that share our philosophy of learning and are interested in authoring courses. Royalties will be based a sliding scale depending on the amount of work required to make the material ready for presentation. All inquiries are welcome. Please send them to fred@etcheverrys.com
