bsorb is a series of interactive online courses for secondary schools, covering physics, chemistry, electronics, mathematics and advanced physics. Our unique simulations, interactive animations, and videos, are linked by an involving narrative, providing the basis for an interactive learning experience. Each title offers a huge amount of interactivity - ranging from simple animations that show hidden concepts, to powerful models that allow flexible experimentation. Each title is well-suited to self-study or review, or provides a framework to teach in front of the whole class on a whiteboard.

"Fun, interactive, research-based simulations of physical phenomena from the PhET project at the University of Colorado."

"As online classes reduce and often eliminate face-to-face (F2F) interactions, it's important for instructors to learn new ways of understanding and interacting with their online students to further enhance their success. Studies show students' cognitive styles play a key role in their success in online courses."

We believe todays students have tremendous potential, are interested in making connections between their academic study and careers, and deserve widely accessible career information. Who are we? Our World Interactive is a not-for profit web and film project jointly produced by WHYY (the Philadelphia and Delaware public broadcasting affiliate) and GlenDevon Group (a private company), Life Science Career Alliance (an industry and education partnership) and the Chester County Intermediate Unit (an educational service agency). . WHAT We offer EXPLORE YOUR FUTURE is an interactive website for job and career exploration targeted to teenagers and young adults in middle school through college and the mentors who advise them. OUR WORLD is a film series highlighting a broad spectrum of careers within one or more industry clusters.

Algodoo is a 2D-simulation environment for creating interactive scenes in a playful, cartoony manner, making use of the physics that we use to explain our real world. Algodoo is designed to encourage young people's own creativity, ability and motivation to construct knowledge. The synergy of science and art makes Algodoo as educational as it is entertaining. Algodoo applies a constructionistic learning paradigm - learning by designing, constructing and exploring physical systems. Design, interact and explore - It's Physics like never before!

The Molecular Workbench (MW) software offers interactive, visual simulations that have been widely used to teach and learn science.

Welcome! A collection of interactive simulations and learning activities produced using the Molecular Workbench are provided at this site. All exhibits are results of calculations based on scientific principles.

Fun, interactive, research-based simulations of physical phenomena from the PhET project at the University of Colorado.

Interactive site for telling time.

Simple and interactive charts online.

"A free resource of interactive visualizations, from elementary education to the frontiers of research."

"We have assembled a wide array of PBL-related resources created by BIE and collected from fellow PBL travelers. The resources are organized into three broad categories: things to read, to watch, or to interact with. If you would like to take a Do-It-Yourself (DIY) approach to learning about PBL, then check out the recommend resources for teachers, coaches, principals, and district leaders. The featured resources have a note on "How Can You Use It?" We also suggest starting your DIY experience by purchasing one of BIE's books."

"Welcome to Math Playground, an action-packed site for elementary and middle school students. Practice your math skills, play a logic game and have some fun!"

Edheads helps students learn through educational games and activities designed to meet state and national standards. We partner with various school systems in the United States, which help us research, design and test our activities every step of the way!

Phun is a free game like 2D physics sandbox where you can play with physics like never before. The playful synergy of science and art is novel, and makes Phun as educational as it is entertaining.
