"Active Chemistry" is a modular, one year, stand-alone, inquiry-based, secondary school chemistry course. It is modeled in design and pedagogical strategies on "Active Physics" and is meant to follow it or to be used in conjunction with it to become a physical science course. "Active Chemistry" is aligned with the National Science Education Standards and State Frameworks that directs all students, grades 9-12, to learn the science necessary to solve real-world problems. The four chapters on Sports Science and Health, Environmental Issues, Entertainment, and Energy contain three modules. Each module includes a chapter challenge, a scenario, activities, and a final project assignment. Students work together in groups to acquire the knowledge needed to address the challenge. Chemical concepts are introduced on a need to know basis and topics reappear in various chapters providing multiple exposures in different contexts. The teacher resources provide a scope and sequence presented in matrix format with unifying and fundamental concepts identified, suggested instructional strategies and techniques, and other resources including precautions on safety issues, equipment lists and assessment tools. A professional development video for one chapter is provided.

“积极化学”是一个模块，一年，独立的，以探究为基础的，中学化学课程。 它在设计和教学策略上以“主动物理学”为模型，并旨在遵循它或与它结合使用，成为一门物理科学课程。 “积极化学”是与国家科学教育标准和国家框架，指导所有学生，9-12年级，学习必要的科学来解决现实世界的问题。 关于体育科学与健康、环境问题、娱乐和能源的四个章节包含三个模块。 每个模块包括一个章节的挑战，一个场景，活动，和一个最终的项目任务。 学生们在小组中一起工作，以获得应对挑战所需的知识。 化学概念是在需要知道的基础上介绍的，主题在不同的章节中重新出现，在不同的背景下提供多重曝光。 教师资源提供了一个范围和序列，以矩阵形式呈现，确定了统一的基本概念，建议的教学策略和技术，以及其他资源，包括安全问题的预防措施，设备清单和评估工具。 提供了一个章节的专业发展视频。
