The Orbital 1 learning material covers the first module of high school chemistry, "Chemistry and Me". The first two chemistry modules are the starting point for your high school chemistry studies and the only compulsory modules in high school chemistry.
The Orbital series is a modern chemistry teaching tool that encourages learners to think about, explore and understand the world of chemistry. The text is written in an engaging way. Chemical phenomena are explained with the help of examples from everyday life. Animations, videos and 3D models have been used to visualise the phenomena. The tasks follow the structure of the new digital matriculation exam, progressing from memory-testing tasks to concept tasks, and finally to applied and more challenging tasks.
Models and visualisation are central to learning chemistry. Learning chemistry is easier when you visualise your own ideas and present them to others. Through group discussions, you learn to develop your own thinking.
We also learn chemistry together. Learning is a social process, which is why the material encourages learners to work collaboratively.
The learning material has been made in accordance with the Finnish upper secondary school curriculum (LOPS2021).
