Abstract
Technology and the Internet have transformed instruction in many classrooms. During one school year, the author's AP chemistry students studied experiments and, using a variety of technological tools, progressed from scientific posters and workshops to an ultimate project: the construction of web pages. The resulting visual products provide a longitudinal assessment of student learning.
