Detail Page

written by the The PhET Project

This web site provides technology-based resources and information for physics education. Simulations on a wide range of topics are available, including Newton's Laws, electricity, light and quantum physics. The simulations are developed in conjunction with careful research to enhance their effectiveness as learning tools. Links to research on the use of technology for physics education. Examples of class use of the materials are also available.
