In 2004, I started a personal NECC (ISTE) tradition. I called it the OutSide Aisle Vendor Award and it was intended to recognize one of the smaller businesses or organizations that offered their product or service from the outside aisle. This year’s award goes to University of Colorado’s PhET Interactive Science Simulation project. The simulations are free and the project supported by impressive sponsors; NSF, Hewlett Foundation, and King Saud University. My wife is involved in a STEM grant focused on the use of simulations in science education and pleased to locate this resource. The one possible downside for her – the simulations are flash based and she just purchased multiple iPads for the project.
