The TechEducator Podcast If you're like most of educators, you're committed to your students and learning how you can help them achieve greatness. Sadly, the truth is, we all struggle with finding enough time to learn it all. That's exactly why I created this e-book 100 Resources that will Supercharge Your Classroom. Molecules Molecules is an application for the iPhone, iPod touch, and now iPad that allows you to view three-dimensional renderings of molecules and manipulate them using your fingers. You can rotate the molecules by moving your finger across the display, zoom in or out by using two-finger pinch gestures, or pan the molecule by moving two fingers across the screen at once. The combination of the iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad's unique multitouch input system and the built-in OpenGL ES 3-D graphics capabilities enable you to feel like you are manipulating the molecules themselves with your fingers. New molecules can be downloaded from the RCSB Protein Data Bank ( an international repository of biological molecules and their 3-D structures, or NCBI's PubChem, a public database of compounds. Custom molecule structures can also be downloaded to the device from any publicly available web server. Molecules is free and its source code is available under the BSD license.
