Micelles
Micelles consist of an aggregate of molecules in a colloidal solution. The simulation presents two different ways the molecules assemble into micelles based on the polarity of the solution in which they are placed. Scholars can set the...

Polar and Non-Polar Interface
Why is there so much frozen water at Earth's poles? Because water is a polar molecule! Young scientists observe polar molecules moving in a mixture of oil and water. They see the changes in potential energy in the hydrophilic and...
Concord Consortium
Hydrogen Bonds: A Special Type of Attraction
How does hydrogen bonding explain ice crystals? An engaging interactive answers just that. Scholars explore how polar molecules interact and observe the changes as temperature fluctuates as well as the hydrogen bond attraction.
Concord Consortium
Modeling Translation
An mRNA sequences make proteins, the most common molecules in cells. Young scientists observe translation of mRNA on ribosomes. They view them forming amino acids. Finally, the amino acids curl into proteins.
Concord Consortium
Diffusion Across Semipermeable Membranes
Mitochondria use two semipermeable membranes to work properly. Young scientists adjust the pore size for two membranes. They then observe the diffusion of two different sizes of molecules.
Concord Consortium
Aquapores
Aquapores allow water to travel through cell membranes while keeping other molecules out. The animation offers an up-close look at these parts of the cell membrane. It explores multiple vantage points and shows the importance of these...
Concord Consortium
Diffusion Across a Semipermeable Membrane
Semipermeable membranes allow water to go through—but not larger molecules. The simulation encourages pupils to adjust the membrane pore size to understand how this works. It also provides a way to trace the movement of a single molecule.
Concord Consortium
Diffusion of a Drop
Trying to learn through diffusion rather than simply studying the material rarely works for scholars. This simulation helps make learning diffusion fun. Pupils add a drop of dye to water and observe the diffusion as the molecules bounce...

The Science of Addiction: The Story of Teens
Users of Discovery Education's interactive on the biology of addiction examine common misconceptions about opioids and learn about the factors that cause addiction. Additionally, they listen to the stories of three teens and their...
Concord Consortium
Intermolecular Attractions and Boiling Point
Why do different substances have different boiling points? Through an interactive lesson, learners explore how intermolecular attractions affect boiling points. They interact with molecules through an animation and make conclusions about...

Infinite Limit Type: Asymptotes and End Behavior Question
There are an infinite number of reasons to use the resource. Scholars drag vertical and horizontal lines to the graph of a rational function to identify all asymptotes. They investigate the connection between asymptotes and limits to...
CK-12 Foundation
Infinite Limit Type: Properties of Limits
Limits can provide some valuable information about graphs. A slider interactive lets learners see the behavior of a graph around asymptotes. They investigate relationships between limits and asymptotes.
CK-12 Foundation
One-Sided Limit Type: One-Sided Limits
Not everything that's one-sided is bad. A slider interactive aids learners in investigating one-sided limits from graphs. A set of challenge questions assesses their understanding of the relationship between one- and two-sided limits.
CK-12 Foundation
Evaluate Limits Using Graphs and Tables: Where Is That Limit?
Limits are made easy through graphs and tables. An easy-to-use interactive lets users change a function on a coordinate plane. They relate graphs and tables to the limit at a specific value.
CK-12 Foundation
Concept of Limit: Limit Notation
Limits to infinity are simple to find if you can compare numerators and denominators. Users of the interactive drag expressions to match with their limit as x approaches infinity. A set of challenge questions assesses their groupings.
CK-12 Foundation
Find Imaginary Solutions: Imaginary Zeros
The resource is the real deal. Individuals investigate the imaginary zeros of f(x) = x^2 + 1. They accomplish this task by using an interactive that shows input values x = a + bi and output values x^2 + 1 on a complex plane.
CK-12 Foundation
Even and Odd Functions and Function Symmetry: Even and Odd Functions
Even, odd, or neither? Pupils study even and odd functions using a well-balanced interactive. They determine whether a given function is even or odd from its graph.
CK-12 Foundation
Continuous Interest
Continue teaching your financial scholars about interest. A slider interactive has users investigate the growth of an account earning continuous interest. A set of challenge questions has them solve problems given a variety of situations.
CK-12 Foundation
Compound Interest per Period: Credit Card Payment
Credit cards can be convenient, but are they worth it? Future consumers learn about compound interest and credit card payments. They use an interactive to create a table that shows the remaining balance after each month.
CK-12 Foundation
Solving Equations with Exponents: Money Over Time
We'd all like to see our money double. An interactive shows how an initial investment of $1,000 will increase using a constant rate of return. Scholars answer a set of challenge questions based on the situation.
CK-12 Foundation
Proofs: Angle Pairs and Segments—The Three Angle Problem
Finding the sum of the measures of three angles is easy, unless you have no clue what the measures are. Learners use an interactive diagram to see a geometric problem in a different way. A set of challenge questions takes them through...

Parallel and Perpendicular Lines: Identify Types of Lines
Are there only three options: parallel, perpendicular, or intersecting? Scholars move a given line in an interactive to change its orientation with respect to another line. The interactive indicates whether the lines are parallel,...

Regular and Irregular Polygons: Polygon States
Colorado would probably object if Wyoming enlarged its borders. Scholars use an interactive map to change the borders of U.S. states to see how angles change. They then answer questions about regular and irregular polygons.
