App Description
“Wish I had this when I was in school…”
“…I think this little app can help kids know and like physics more”
Find out how this highly engaging and interactive app helps in comprehensively understanding and applying the concepts of simple machines with the help of animation and fun-filled simulation! Learn about concepts starting from force and work, and explore the world of simple machines (levers) around you in this lite version. Other simple machines such as pulleys, wheel and axles, inclined planes, screws, and wedges are covered in the full version of this app.
This app is aligned with Bloom’s taxonomy, and draws from Common Core State Standards* and Next Generation Science Standards*. As a member of the KNOW What’s Inside program, this app has been designed especially for children, with special attention to online privacy.
The app is packed with the following features:
* Concept book: Study principles of simple machines with easy to understand 3-D animation, drawings, and visual images
* Did You Know: Get to know interesting facts and snippets of information about simple machines from both a historical perspective and current context
* Quiz: Test your understanding of concepts and ability to relate to real-life examples
* Explore More: Apply the concepts you read to simple experiments using objects around you
* Simulation: Apply concepts to a life-like situation and learn from various alternative courses of action.
The suggested sequence for going through various modules in this app is Concept-Simulation-Quiz-Did You Know-Explore More.
This app is intended:
(a) for students primarily in the age group 8 – 14 years who want to understand concepts from scratch,
(b) as a supplemental guide for teachers, and
(c) as a reference tool for those who want to strengthen their understanding of the subject.
