Elements 4D App

WHAT IS SCIENCE : I lately constitute out close a novel FREE app that I intend all middle schoolhouse teachers together with chemical scientific discipline teachers would love- the Elements 4D app yesteryear Daqri. In add-on to the complimentary app, the site too provides complimentary lesson plans for teachers of simple students, middle schoolhouse students, together with high schoolhouse students.  It is an augmented reality app inwards which students reveal the properties of diverse elements (available via interactive blocks that are printed together with assembled into cubes yesteryear the instructor prior to the activity - too complimentary to download from their site.)  CLICK HERE to locomote taken direct to the site.  

The video clip below shows 2 of the vi blocks that are provided (36 unlike elements inwards all).  By utilizing the app, the elements are brought to life.  Students are able to come across what the chemical ingredient looks similar inwards its natural shape - it's field of affair is shown within the block every bit the chemical ingredient "comes to life."  Students tin too click on the chemical ingredient advert to reveal to a greater extent than factual information close the element.  If 2 elements are able to combine to shape a compound, the chemical compound that is created volition too "come to life" when the 2 chemical ingredient blocks are touching.  Students come across the chemic equation that is produced when the 2 elements combine to shape a compound.  If they attain non shape a compound, zero volition happen.  

In the video above, yous tin come across that sodium is a silvery, corporation metal.  Chlorine is a poisonous, greenish gas.  But when combined, they shape a harmless chemical compound called sodium chloride (table salt).  I come across bully benefits to using this when pedagogy valence electrons, chemic reactions, chemic equations, together with and then much more!

Daqri too has an Anatomy 4D app that allows students to explore the human trunk together with heart.  Students tin interact amongst ane trunk organization at a fourth dimension together with written report it inwards intricate exceptional (for example, they tin focus on simply the skeletal, muscular, or respiratory system) or reveal how they all work together at the same time.  The instructor exclusively has to impress out ane sail of newspaper for the human trunk component division or ane sail of newspaper for the pump portion.  To locomote taken direct to the Anatomy 4D site, CLICK HERE.  A quick demo video of the pump together with the human trunk are below.
