What are Gizmos?

Grades 3-12

ExploreLearning Gizmos are award-winning virtual math and science simulations that bring research-proven instructional strategies to life. With more than 550 Gizmos and STEM Cases, students dig deeper into math and science topics through real-life problem-solving.

Each Gizmo comes with extensive teaching resources (like pre-made, customizable lesson materials and professional development) for easy planning and implementation.

A perfect fit

Aligned to the Maryland College and Career Ready Mathematics Standards and Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS), Gizmos help students prepare and succeed on end-of-year summative assessments, like the Maryland Integrated Science Assessment (MISA) and Maryland Comprehensive Assessment Program (MCAP) mathematics assessments.

Instead of skimming the surface, in-depth visualization and data analytics tools help students develop a conceptual understanding of topics as they capture and compare experiment results, make predictions, and share findings with others.
