Circuit Construction Kit Projectile Motion Simulator

Problem Statements:  Our school does not have a circuit board kit to assist in teaching the Basic Electricity Curriculum offered by the STEM Academy website we use for our STEM courses  Students working in our advanced STEM Class to design a basketball catapult need help in visualizing the effect of changing the initial velocity and the effect of changing the release angle of a catapult.

We do not have a circuit board for students to use with the STEM Academy Curriculum Last year, the Stem Academy sold circuit boards for over $500. This year, the curriculum uses PhET Interactive Simulations. The use of a virtual circuit board allows students to experiment with circuit construction safely, without any cost.

Virtual Circuit Board STEM Academy Basic Electricity: Series Circuit PhET Circuit Construction Kit

Our advanced STEM class is working on a project to construct a Basketball Catapult. They needed a way to visualize the effect of changing velocity and the angle of release of the basketball as they plan the construction of their catapult. The PhET Projectile Motion Simulation allows students to experiment by changing values of angle and initial velocity.

Advanced STEM Class Using PhET Projectile Simulation as they plan construction of their basketball catapult.

Suggestions  PhET Interactive Simulations offer excellent tools to be used by teachers or students  The simulations offer a cost free method of assisting students in visualization of math and science concepts  The simulations can be used by students with access to the internet or by teachers as a visual aid

State Standards Foundations of Technology  Standard 5 - Apply the Engineering Design Process Understand and apply the engineering design process by transforming an idea into a final product or system Analyze how electrical systems in terms of common components, basic system design, safety considerations and simple controls.
