Protein structure
Proteopedia.org - The wikipedia of protein structure. Lots of useful info to explore in the Table of Contents.
Firstglance in JMOL - A web based protein visualization for the masses. All you need is a pdb number.
Polyview-3D - Easily make publication quality images and animations online.
FOLD IT - Yes, a protein structure based computer game. Check it out. Very fun.
Molmovdb - Database of protein morphs for highlighting structural changes in proteins. You can also submit your own morphs.
Databases
The Protein Data Bank - Depository of all things structural in biochemistry and biophysics, check out Molecule of the Month
NCBI - The National Center for Biotechnology Information. Proteins, genes, publications. A one stop shop.

teaching resources
RSC Visual Elements Periodic Table - Great online table with lots of information. Love the History Tab showing when each element was discovered
Narrated Harvard "Inner Life of a Cell" video OR with dramatic music
Crash Course (Chemistry) - Excellent fast paced videos highlighting key concepts in a very fun way.
Minute Physics - Great YouTube channel with lots of physics and chemistry concepts introduced with engaging drawings and narration
Veritasium - My favorite YouTube science channel. Science blog with fun videos on interesting topics.
Timeline - For Jan Term
