AUS-e-TUTE is being developed by experienced Science Teachers to provide FREE Chemistry tutorials suitable for High School students.
Each AUS-e-TUTE tutorial is a simple one-page look at a particular aspect of a chemistry topic and has links to the AUS-e-TUTE Members Only Test Centre.

You will need to become an AUS-e-TUTE member in order to access the AUS-e-TUTE Members Only Test Centre.
You can find out more about AUS-e-TUTE membership here.
The AUS-e-TUTE Members Only Test Centre contains thousands of questions arranged by topic into

tests

Test and exam questions have fully worked solutions, and wherever possible, there is a link back to the relevant AUS-e-TUTE tutorial.

There is an assortment of different types of questions within each test and exam:

multiple choice
calculations
short answer response
long answer response

The learning activities include crossword puzzles and games.

New learning activities, test and exam questions are added to the Members Only Test Centre regularly.

There are two types of ausetute membership:

Individual Membership
School (or Group) Membership

Individual membership provides access to the AUS-e-TUTE Test Centre for 1 person for 1 year.
Individual membership costs $50 (Australian) per year. You can convert this into your own currency here.
You can become an AUS-e-TUTE Individual Member by filling out the online registration form using your credit card, or you can print off the membership form and send it to AUS-e-TUTE with either your credit card details or a cheque.

AUS-e-TUTE School (or Group) Membership provides access to the Test Centre for each of your Chemistry students and teachers 24 hours a day, 7 days a week for 1 year. AUS-e-TUTE will also work with your teachers in order to provide your students with pages relevant to your lessons, we call these School Pages.
Teachers can set AUS-e-TUTE tests and exams as classwork, homework, or as work to be done when the teacher is away, knowing that, unlike most textbooks, there will be a worked solution for each question, not just an answer.
