    Innovation with implications in currciulum areas of Physics, Chem, and Env. Science

    I really like how the website provides "featured articles" that are very current and pertain to "hot issues" going around currently. It's great to have a wide variety of information in terms of subject so that student's can learn more; however, being able to read up on something more recent might intrigue them a bit more because they are familiar with it.

    I use the website all the time for student independent research idea generation! For our students seeking to enter ISEF, Siemens, and other science competitions new & exciting ideas energize them and get them to push to the next level - find mentors and perform high caliber science.

    A I just read an article about an innovation that will be awesome for military and national security. This invention will guide bullets, using lasers, to targets at a distance of almost 2 km. I know this isn't education related, but the students of today will be developing the innovations of tomorrow. I'm sure this bullet technology was engineered with a wealth of mathematics, physics, and earth space R&D.

    I am currently taking a class to wrap of my licensure in physics, and the professor is using PhET for the experiments. Nonetheless, I spent most of today playing with all of the cool little simulations on the website. I love this site.

    This is a neat lesson for teaching students in physical science classes about simple machines, how they work, and how they benefit society. Students have to design their own simple machines that would assist in lifting an elephant onto a train car (although an different scenario could easily be substituted). Requires very few materials.

  • Working with his friend, graphic designer Josh Salcman, Shmuylovich created Virtual Nerd. The tutoring subscription service, found at virtualnerd.com, uses hundreds of online videos — similar to YouTube — to guide students visually through math and physics concepts, such as expressions, polynomials and factoring a trinomial.

    I like this a lot! I agree that we are moving towards virtual learning experiences more and more in today's world.

    The videos cover several areas in algebra for which I know students in my school could benefit from their use.
