Currently, STEM education is in full swing in all countries of the world. STEM is an experimental science, and books as an information medium are inherently inadequate in teaching. Students need to do it by hand, instead of making laws and writing formulas. However, practical trials tend to be rigid into a streamlined “cooking guideâ€.
An interactive simulation experiment program from the United States revolutionized traditional STEM teaching and opened the black box for STEM teaching.
What is the PhET interactive simulation program?
Project Name: PhET Interactive Simulations, PhET Interactive Simulation Program
Project content: As a free online interactive simulation program, PhET is committed to promoting science and mathematics teaching worldwide, supporting more efficient and engaging education.
Initiative: University of Colorado, Boulder School, PhET Interactive Simulation Program
Headquarters: Boulder, Colorado, USA
Project scope: global
Number of beneficiaries: more than 80 million people use each year
Project representative: Dr. Kathy Perkins

Traditional circuit experiments (DC and AC)
In this increasingly technology-led society, how to develop a broader range of science and mathematics is the key to education. However, countless studies have shown that traditional K-12 and higher education science teaching can not effectively stimulate students' interest and motivation in science learning, and can not develop their deeper conceptual understanding of science, acquisition of scientific process skills, and science. Professional vision.
PhET: Open the black box for STEM teaching
Founded in 2002 by Nobel Laureate in Physics, Karl Whitman is a free online physics, chemistry, biology, geography and math simulation program. Innovative interactive simulations help students explore learning in a lively interactive game-like learning environment.

Highlight 1: Visualization of abstract concepts
PhET integrates experimental teaching of information technology and science courses to visualize abstract scientific concepts and invisible microscopic facts (such as current), while providing a dynamic visual model that enhances understanding, allowing students to explore, manipulate and test experiments anytime, anywhere. Experience an intuitive, realistic experimental process.

PhET: The form and transformation of energy
The PhET project utilizes research and rigorous quality control testing to ensure the quality of STEM teaching resources. Each simulation program develops a specific set of learning objectives for the general problems students have in learning the classroom content and practice. During the development process, each simulation program has been repeatedly tested and modified to ensure that the interface design and feedback can stimulate students to conduct constructive exploration and learning, ask hypothetical questions, and understand the core concepts of science and mathematics.
Highlight 2: Use online or offline
For a classroom that lacks experimental equipment or a network, this is a big gospel. The entire PhET simulation program is very flexible and is not limited to the user's grade level and can be used in different online and offline environments (classroom, laboratory, homework).
Highlight 3: Different language versions
The PhET software has been translated into 89 languages ​​and the website has been translated into 40 languages, of which more than 7,000 have been translated. At the same time, the PhET website also provides translators with a translator interface that can be translated on their own.
Highlight 4: Rich teacher resources
The University of Colorado's Borde Research Center clearly stated that PhET is always a tool, and the key is to learn to use it. Therefore, they further provide users with rich teacher resources to help teachers better integrate PhET into the classroom, play the role of their tools, and truly implement exploratory learning.
Highlight 5: Free, free, free!
Impact of PhET
Currently, the PhET simulation program has been widely used internationally, with more than 80 million uses per year, including around 30% international usage and 25% annual growth.
The PhET simulation program was awarded the “Microsoft Education Technology Award†by the Tech Museum of Innovation in 2011 and the Wharton School of Business and the analytics data provider QS (the publisher of the QS World University Rankings) in 2014. The “Re-imagining Education·Innovative Teaching Award†was selected.
future development
The pace of innovation at PhET has never stopped. Currently, PhET is developing a simulation program that can serve students with disabilities and released the first available program in May 2017. At the same time, PhET is also conducting R&D activities that enhance interoperability, including simulation software customization, API-based cross-technology control, and active interactive back-end data streams.
