Abstract	This paper describes a responsive, digital periodic table that has been specifically designed as a visual aid for high school or college chemistry classrooms and lecture halls. The periodic table runs in a web browser and can therefore be used in any classroom that has a digital projector and screen. It features click-to-highlight table cells that an instructor can use to draw students' attention to specific elements and style schemes that can be used to color groups of elements and illustrate periodic trends. The periodic table is written in HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, which gives users flexibility to customize its appearance; its size can be adjusted to fit the screen in the classroom in which it is used. Users can also add additional atomic data to expand the periodic table's capabilities if desired. (As Provided).
