Gizmos

“Gizmos gives students a chance to use technology to investigate and model science concepts that can be difficult to replicate in a classroom setting. It helps students visualize processes that can be hard to do otherwise.”

Gizmos

“Gizmos goes beyond traditional teaching methods, offering interactive simulations and virtual labs that engage students in hands-on learning experiences. The platform provides educators with a diverse range of science simulations, fostering a deeper understanding of complex concepts. Through its user-friendly interface, Gizmos empowers both teachers and students to explore, experiment, and comprehend abstract topics in a fun and interactive manner.”

“Gizmos has been a LIFESAVER during this Covid-19 crisis! I’ve been using Gizmos to teach my math students in grades 2-6. I even use Cannonball Clowns as a game with grades 1 through 7! Gizmos is an amazing way to teach math concepts that keeps students engaged in a very unengaging situation. I especially enjoy Fraction Artist, Fraction Garden, Fido’s Flower Bed, and Cannonball Clowns. THANK YOU! I don’t know what I’d do without you!”

“Gizmos has been a perfect supplement to our curriculum this year as we transition to new Indiana Standards and need new simulations to help with "modeling" the topics. So happy to have access to these engaging interactives!”

“Gizmos has given me the opportunity to run science simulations with real data with my students. They can see evidence of a variable changing within seconds. Gizmos allowed my students to experience science concepts they would have never been exposed to.”

“Gizmos have become such a staple in my classroom. If I tell my students an activity or homework assignment will include a Gizmo, I am usually met with at least one ‘Let's go!’ and immediate log-ins to the platform.”

“Gizmos have been critical for helping students understand and use inquiry skills. I heavily rely on Gizmos for lesson demos, inquiry investigations, and to replace labs for phenomena that is difficult or impossible to show in real life. Students comment on how helpful the simulations are.”

Gizmos

“Gizmos have helped my students visualize challenging concepts in a way that makes sense to them and allows them to manipulate variables to see the scientific process in action.”

Gizmos

“Gizmos have provided opportunities through extensive STEM Cases and digital labs that require materials and time constraints that are impossible in an in-person class setting. Gizmos also use on-screen manipulation similar to what is expected on the ATLAS science assessments. With Gizmos we are preparing our sixth-grade scholars to be successful in a STEM-driven school district.”

“Gizmos is a great to show students concepts that otherwise will be difficult to grasp like tides, coastal winds, to name a few. It helps a lot with ELL students and there are great lesson materials from "Our Community" that are in Spanish and other languages.”
