Introduction
PhET is a collection of simulations that can be integrated in classroom teaching-learning. We will look at two examples of simulations.
ICT Competency
For this we will need to open an application called PhET on the computer. You can find PhET under Applications> Education> Science. PhET is an educational resource that contains computer demonstrations of experiments and activities. When we click on Play with sims – it will open simulations in various subjects. We will click on Physics and scroll down to the simulation on Pendulum Lab.
When we want to open a simulation, we click on the green rectangle which says “Run Now”.
Educational application and relevance
PhET simulations are very flexible tools that can be used in many ways. Here, you will find videos and resources for learning about effective ways of integrating PhET simulations into your class.
