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

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.

Golems is a 3D Physics and Artificial Intelligence simulator. Golems lets you construct a machine - any type of machine - and then bring that machine to life.

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.

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.

The Chemistry Collective is a collection of virtual labs, scenario-based learning activities, and concepts tests which can be incorporated into a variety of teaching approaches as pre-labs, alternatives to textbook homework, and in-class activities for individuals or teams.
