We’re expanding our collection of earth science simulations with Plate Tectonics:
Explore how plates move on the surface of the earth. Change temperature, composition, and thickness of plates. Discover how to create new mountains, volcanoes, or oceans!
We’re excited to add to our collection of biology simulations with the latest new simulation, Gene Expressions – The Basics:
Express yourself through your genes! See if you can generate and collect three types of protein, then move on to explore the factors that affect protein synthesis in a cell.
Chemistry Teachers – Getting ready for the new year?
See how Trish Loeblein, PhET K-12 Specialist and Evergreen High School physics & chemistry teacher, uses PhET sims in her high school chemistry course. The lessons include how to use PhET for demos, in-class activities, homeworks, and concept questions.
(The activities were designed for Trish’s Honors Chemistry course but can be easily adapted for many levels and needs.)
Physics Teachers – Getting ready for the new year?
See how Trish Loeblein, PhET K-12 Specialist and Evergreen High School physics & chemistry teacher, uses sims during these first semester activities on kinematics. The lessons include how to use PhET for demos, in-class labs, homeworks, and concept questions.
(The activities are appropriate for many levels and can easily be adapted for your particular needs.)
