General Science

At the Mad Scientist Network, ask a scientist a question... any question... and they'll get back to you with an answer if your question is good enough to share with the rest of the world! (note: getting a reply usually takes a looooong time!)
Is there something you've always wondered about? The Science and Technology Awareness Network (STANet) is the page for you!!! Ask all your wacky, fandangled, out-of this-world science and tech questions here.
From the folks at the Oregon Museum of Science and Industry. Check their Science Whatzit! site for answers in astronomy, chemistry, earth science, computer science, biology and physics.
EXN.CA is the Exploration Network, affilated with the Discovery Channel Online. It has all sorts of articles about science, nature, technology and adventure.
Science a GoGo contains tons of science news, a new interesting article every day. Stuff you probably won't find in the papers- dinosaurs possibly being warm blooded, smoking making you stupid, locusts watching Star Wars to create robot vision...

Biology

The University of Arizona's Biology Page contains EVERYTHING you wanted to know about biology. Well, except invertebrates (YUCK!) Topics include: Biochemistry, Genetics, Immunology, Chemicals and Human Health, and Cell, Developmental, Human and Molecular Biology
HHMI's Biointeractive lets you visit virtual labs, where you can visit cardiology and neurophysiology labs, learn how different medical tools and parts of the body function, see video clips of exactly how hearing happens, bacteria infects and heart pumps, and ask scientists your questions about biology!
The Gene School is a useful site for students, whether you're encountering Mendel's principles of heredity for the first time, trying to untangle the double helix, or taking an advanced class in population genetics. There is a good glossary of terms commonly used in the field

NetFrog- The Interactive Frog Dissection

Looking back on my grade 11 biology frog dissection, I remember oodles of my squeamish friends looking on as I cut open the frog. Unfortunately, they had never been to Netfrog where you can now prepare for this scientific rite of passage --without the formaldehyde!

Chemistry

U Penn's Interactive Textoook is an online "textbook" for Math, Physics and Chemistry.
Chemistry Tutor is basically a site that helps you with everything chemistry... very helpful... reactions, equations, safety, links, and more.

Chem Tutor

ChemTutor is another one of these tutor sites... kind of bland looking, but lots of great info!

General Chemistry Online

Designed by chemistry professor Fred Senese at Frostburg State University to supplement his course, General Chemistry Online is also a valuable resource for high school chem students.

Physics

Learn Physics Today!

Are concepts of motion and forces and velocity making your head spin? This online physics tutorial is soothingly simple and straightforward.

Ippex (Internet Plasma Physics Education Experience)

Designed by the Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory, the Ippex site is geared toward advanced middle school and high school students studying plasma physics and fusion energy. Basic principles are covered in Interactive Physics, a series of Shockwave pages on matter, electricity and magnetism, energy and fusion.

Computers

No, I haven't forgotten computer science... HTML Goodies is a very great HTML and JAVA resource and is very informative and comprehensive. I've used it to help design my page.
Turing... the most widely used programming language at our school... why? I'm not too sure myself. If you REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY want to visit the Turing Homepage, (which should be ALL of you), you can click on the link to the left.
