“Hello, Ms. D. I apologize about emailing you during the weekend, but I couldn’t wait to tell you. Gizmos is so much fun, and I absolutely love it. I actually learn something and I like the fact that it is interactive. Thank you so much for making us do Gizmos.”
— Gizmos Student, American International School, Abu Dhabi
“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.”
- High school instructional facilitator, Nettleton Public Schools
“Gizmos helped them [students] prepare for the exams and have a better understanding of how systems work.”
- Teacher, Utah Online School
“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.”
- Teacher, Miami-Dade County Public Schools
“Gizmos is a very interactive platform that allows students to explore a variety of different topics in chemistry, biology, and physics. One of the great characteristics of Gizmos is that it gives students the ability to explore topics in microscale experiments that can't be done in a standard lab. Gizmos allow students to control different variables, make different experiments, and apply the scientific method. They provide teachers with all the resources needed to use the simulation in a very interactive and effective way. I encourage all teachers to use Gizmos in their classes.”
- High school teacher
“Gizmos is a wonderful platform where simulations help us virtually conduct experiments. These captivating online simulations hold students’ attention and make them dig deeper to understand concepts effectively. Before using Gizmos, we had to teach certain topics in science theoretically. But Gizmos has provided us with a fantastic platform to apply our theoretical knowledge practically. They empowers students to conduct their own investigations. They learn challenging concepts through inquiry and exploration by changing the variables in an experiment, observing the virtual results, and drawing the conclusions. Gizmos allows us to follow an inquiry-based learning approach as teachers and help students to become problem solvers.”

“Gizmos is great to help students engage with science. I feel like they got more involved in activities.”
- Teacher, Centerton Gamble Elem School
“Gizmos naturally foster engaged conversation and dialogue because the interactive models prompt immediate "what if" questions and testable predictions. Students in groups were constantly negotiating which variable to change next and justifying their predictions based on their prior knowledge or observations from the simulation. The simulations encourage students to use scientific vocabulary to explain the phenomena they were seeing, moving beyond passive learning into active explanation.”
- Teacher, Northeast Middle School
“Gizmos revolutionizes the way students engage with STEM education. Through interactive simulations and virtual experiments, Gizmos brings science and math concepts to life, providing students with a dynamic and hands-on learning experience. With a focus on inquiry-based instruction, Gizmos allows educators to seamlessly integrate technology into their teaching, promoting a deeper understanding of complex scientific and mathematical principles.”
- Primary school teacher
“Gizmos Stem Cases are well designed to cover the connections of learning with real life.”
- Teacher, Noordwijk International College
“Gizmos supported neurodiverse students in feeling more comfortable by creating space for productive failure while engaging students in interactive learning experiences.”
