How much rain can that cloud make? Through a simulation, the class estimates the amount of candy rain contained in different cup clouds. After probing the clouds using different methods, class members adjust their estimates. Participants...

Visit the Magic Treehouse and take your class on a trip through time with a reading of the children's book Mummies in the Morning. Using the story to spark an investigation into Egyptian culture, this literature unit engages...

Why is there more daylight in June than in December if you live above the equator? How does the angle of sunlight shift throughout the year? Answer these questions and more with an interactive article about the sun, its path through the...

This downloadable java simulation models the 2D energy eigenstates of a particle trapped in a very deep two-dimensional circular well.

Simulation of a Lorenz attractor which is shaped like a butterfly. Manipulate the image and observe from all sides as the orbits about two fixed points are drawn.

An electrostatic simulation that moves beyond the two-dimensional representations a book may provide. Try this Gauss' Law model which shows the electric field and potential for cylindrical and spherical symmetry.

Simulate the motion of a charged particle in electric and magnetic fields, and then complete the equations of motion using the Lorentz force law.

Various computational physics models including interactive applications for practicing physics problems.

Complete this model of a Faraday loop by adding the equations to explicate a conducting loop in a constant magnetic filed.
