Aktiv Learning develops Aktiv Chemistry — a next-generation active learning platform built exclusively for first-year chemistry courses. The mobile-first platform delivers a unique blend of active learning, homework, and assessment tools that help students to visualize, experience, and interact with difficult chemistry concepts in new and exciting ways. Aktiv Chemistry is currently adopted by over 1,500 chemistry faculty at 400+ colleges and universities across North America such as Florida State University, California State University, and the University of Connecticut. Instructors utilize the platform to engage their students during and after class with real-time digital learning activities, assign online homework, timed quizzes, and extra practice. Aktiv Chemistry also offers instructors the ability to enhance their courses in any format: in-person, hybrid, or completely online.

Check out some of the incredible use cases and testimonials from our instructor community, watch some of our pre-recorded webinars, or schedule a live 1-on-1 demo of the platform with a chemist.
