Join PhET Interactive Simulations to welcome their first-ever cohort of PhET Fellows! 32 Fellows have been appointed across Africa and Latin America to accelerate the adoption of engaging and research-based teaching and learning of STEM subjects. Learn more about how they’ll make quality STEM education more accessible, https://bit.ly/3svqP3e The PhET Fellowship program is part of the PhET Global initiative, supported by the Yidan Prize Foundation as part of the prize project activities of our 20

Did you know that PhET Interactive Simulations offers STEM simulations in over 120 languages? PhET simulations are used in classrooms across continents, engaging students through an intuitive, game-like environment in local and regional languages. Based on extensive education research, the sims connect real-life scenarios and their underlying science, helping students to think like mathematicians and scientists in school and beyond. Our 2020 laureate Professor Carl Wieman is using his Yidan Priz

Perpetual Motion Simulator: as recently seen on @therealadamsavage and recently profiled by @stevemouldscience, back in 2021 this piece of amazing kinetic art was shared on @physicsfun- and a couple weeks after the internet was flooded with versions based on a really bad design with a motor and a kick wheel for a fraction of cost of the one shown here. Of course this marble machine device does not break any laws of thermodynamics- but instead the base contains a power source and very clever mech

Did you know PhET Interactive Simulations has delivered over 1.1 billion math and science simulations to teachers and students globally? Their simulations help learners explore concepts and adjust experiments in real-time, encouraging them to think like scientists. In Hong Kong, educators shared how they’re using these simulations to help students learn. Which simulations are their favorites?
