- Institute of Play
Institute of Play leverages games and play as critical contexts for learning, innovation, & change in the 21st century. We bring non-traditional audiences into innovative spaces of production & learning through partnerships with the game industry, academia, government, science, technology, & the arts. Our goals are to: * Embrace game design as an agent of provocation, education, and change * Build new domains of knowledge connected to gaming, digital media and learning * Develop innovative curricula around gaming literacies * Create experiences bridging digital and non-digital learning environments * Foster new models of collaboration between students, educators, and professional game designers * Provide a space for the experimentation and exchange of ideas

- Interactive Periodic Table
The periodic table was created by Professor Dmitri Mendeleev in 1869 using the properties of known elements. The Periodic Table organises the elements so that elements with similar properties are in the same column ('Group'), with elements across a row ('Period') shown in order of increasing atomic number. So the Periodic Table links the stucture of the atoms of an element with its properties. Many other interactive periodic tables are available on the web; you can learn more about elements in the Periodic Table in the Visual Elements table from the Royal Society of Chemistry and this photographic one.
