JACS Image Challenge Mobile app is Now Available in the iTunes Store
The Journal of the American Chemical Society is pleased to announce the
launch of JACS Image Challenge Mobile, a free mobile app that is now
available for all Apple iOS devices (iPod Touch, iPhone, iPad).
Now featuring over 180 unique challenges, the app is a mobile extension
of the popular JACS Image Challenge, hosted on the JACS Beta website since
2008. Building on the success of the feature, a mobile app has been
developed to allow researchers to turn the time spent waiting for an
experiment, a purification, or even a bus or train ride into a rewarding
learning experience.
Each challenge is a multiple-choice question about the concepts portrayed
in an image from an Article or Communication recently published in JACS.
After the user submits his/her response, an explanation of the correct
answer is displayed.
This free application is updated with a new JACS Image Challenge weekly,
and is a great way to interact with the ground-breaking, high-quality
research published in JACS.
Each challenge provides an interactive, enjoyable experience for all
users, and is particularly valuable to advancing the broader scientific
understanding of students.
The JACS Image Challenge mobile version offers the following features:
· Track the challenges taken and how many were answered correctly
· Save favorite challenges
· View challenges by subject category
· Download new challenges automatically
We hope you will download the JACS Image Challenge Mobile app at the
iTunes store at
