PHET Interactive Simulations - FET Phase

PHET Interactive Simulations - FET Phase
Maths and Science Simulations for the FET Phase

Founded in 2002 by Nobel Laureate Carl Wieman, the PhET Interactive Simulations project at the University of Colorado Boulder creates free interactive math and science simulations. PhET sims are based on extensive education research and engage students through an intuitive, game-like environment where students learn through exploration and discovery.

PhET provides fun, free, interactive, research-based science and mathematics simulations. The simulations are written in HTML5 (with some legacy simulations in Java or Flash), and can be run online or downloaded to your computer. All simulations are open source (see our source code). Multiple sponsors support the PhET project, enabling these resources to be free to all students and teachers. For more information please visit: https://phet.colorado.edu/
