Rating
0.0 stars

How do greenhouse gases affect the climate? Explore the atmosphere during the ice age and today. What happens when you add clouds? Change the greenhouse gas concentration and see how the temperature changes. Then compare to the effect of glass panes. Zoom in and see how light interacts with molecules. Do all atmospheric gases contribute to the greenhouse effect?

An Interprofessional Virtual Gaming Simulation: Breaking the Chain of Transmission
Conditional Remix & Share Permitted
CC BY-NC
Rating
0.0 stars

This virtual simulation promotes the application of knowledge and skills related to interprofessional collaboration and infection prevention and control practices. Learners will need a foundational knowledge in infection prevention and control practices, including routine practices and additional precautions guidelines. Learners will use their assessment and communication skills throughout the game. By the end of the virtual gaming simulation, learners will be able to apply interprofessional communication skills to foster collaboration and provide safe client care, demonstrate knowledge and skills related to infection prevention and control practices, and identify high risk areas to break the chain of transmission.

Introduction to Reflection Seismics
Conditional Remix & Share Permitted
CC BY-NC-SA
Rating
0.0 stars

Introduction to seismic theory, measurements and processing of seismic data to final focussed image for geological and/or physical interpretation.This course deals with the most important aspects of reflection seismics. Theory of seismic waves, aspects of data acquisition (seismic sources, receivers and recorders), and of data processing (CMP processing, velocity analysis, stacking, migration) will be dealt with. The course will be supplemented by a practical of 6 afternoons where the students will see the most important data-processing steps via exercises (in Matlab).

Can you avoid the boulder field and land safely, just before your fuel runs out, as Neil Armstrong did in 1969? Our version of this classic video game accurately simulates the real motion of the lunar lander with the correct mass, thrust, fuel consumption rate, and lunar gravity. The real lunar lander is very hard to control.

Rating
0.0 stars

This simulation provides a realistic virtual mass-and-spring laboratory. Users can explore spring motion by manipulating stiffness of the spring and mass of the hanging weight. Concepts of Hooke's Law and elastic potential energy are further clarified through charts showing kinetic, potential, and thermal energy for each spring. This item is part of a larger collection of simulations developed by the Physics Education Technology project (PhET). The simulations are animated, interactive, and game-like environments in which students learn through exploration. All of the sims are freely available from the PhET website for incorporation into classes.
