App Store Description

Features:
- 78 levels and 36 challenges teaching and training the symbols, names, atomic numbers and position (in the periodic table) of all the 118 discovered or synthesized elements of the periodic table.
- two main learning content types - name and position.
- effective and fun teaching and training strategy: learn and train first with ease and then challenge yourself with pressure.
- Calculated amount of repetition for smooth and efficient progress.
- 9 modules including Alkali Metals, Alkaline Earth Metals, Transition Metals, Lanthanoids, Actinoids, Post-transition Metals, Metalloids, Reactive Nonmetals and Noble Gases.
- 1 module (All Elements) mixing all the elements for review and knowledge enhancement.
- a different color for each module (Transition Metals, Metalloids, Noble Gases etc.) for better memorization.
- a certificate for each module after the user passes all the (Name and Position) levels and challenges in that module.
- the Info page provides insights into the composition and significance of the periodic table as well as the functionalities of the app.
- the Explore page allows users to zoom in and out the periodic table to see the elements more clearly and click on them to see their symbol, name, atomic number and mass (weight).
- works completely offline.

What’s the Periodic Table of Elements?

The periodic table is a tabular display of the chemical elements, which by far includes 118 elements that have been discovered or synthesized. They are arranged by atomic number, electron configuration, and recurring chemical properties. The 7 rows of the table are called periods, which generally have metals on the left and nonmetals on the right. The elements in the same row have the same number of electron shells (also called orbits) in an atom. The row number is the electron shell number. The 18 columns of the table are called groups, which contain elements with similar chemical properties. The elements in the same column have the same amount of valence electrons (outer shell electrons), which decide the chemical properties of an element. The box colors of the elements represent the classes of elements, which include metals, metalloids and nonmetals. These classes can be further categorized into subclasses, which are modules in this app.

----------------------------

What’s Elements Academy?

Elements Academy is developed to help those who are interested in chemistry and want to memorize quickly and easily the elements’ symbols, names, atomic numbers and position in the table. The two key teaching and training concepts are progressive introduction and focused repetition. The learning material is categorized into modules and then broken down into manageable units (levels) to ensure efficient learning and training. If you are not particularly interested in the chemical elements but in improving your memory in general, Elements Academy is also a useful tool.

----------------------------

What are modules?

All the chemical elements can be categorized into three major classes - metals, metalloids and nonmetals, while each major class can be further divided into various subclasses. In Elements Academy, there are 9 modules (as well as 1 summary module), which correspond to 9 subclasses of the elements - Alkali Metals, Alkaline Earth Metals, Transition Metals, Lanthanoids, Actinoids, Post-transition Metals, Metalloids, Reactive Nonmetals and Noble Gases. Each subclass is marked by a different color for effective memorization.

----------------------------

Levels and challenges?

In short, a level focuses on introducing new elements while a challenge tests what you’ve learnt. In a challenge, you must make less than 3 mistakes to pass it.

All in all, have fun learning and mastering all the chemical elements!
