Apps
We have also been available in the App Store since April 2025! Under the name Didaktik der Chemie Saar, we have published our own (learning) apps for iOS and iPadOS. With Nanis Nomenklatur, Nanis Welt and Chemiedidaktik Saar, we want to provide students and teachers with modern digital tools to experience chemistry in a vivid, interactive, and practical way.
Chemiedidaktik Saar
The app for teachers and students in Saarland.
The app provides insight into the work of the Chemistry Didactics Working Group and the associated NanoBioLab student laboratory at Saarland University. In addition to a contact form, users can book experiments, register for training courses, or find out about the group's current research.
Contents:
+ Current training courses
+ Information about the NanoBioLab student laboratory
+ Overview of all bookable experiments
+ Current research insights
+ Preview of the following content with augmented reality content in the 3D models
+ Renovation of the laboratory at a glance
+ Links to social media and YouTube
