Interesting simulations and quick topics on math and science subjects.

Community Review for CK-12
My Take
I really enjoyed the simulations and wish they were more fully functioning and interactive, which I think the creators are working towards. Having the interactive simulations would keep a student engaged in the site for hours.
How I Use It
The simulations are great, especially if the ability to change parameters for some of the problems was working. The simulations could be used whenever introducing a new topic to show what affects the motion or results. Also, a great tool for students to look through a get a quick review of certain topics.

Ck-12
The CK-12 platform offers a clean and intuitive user interface, making it easy to navigate and explore the vast amount of information provided. The platform can teach both introductory and advanced topics and can be picked up in less than 10 minutes. While the platform may have some limitations, such as clunky layout and cumbersome class setup, it can be a valuable tool for engaging students based on their interests. One teacher reported struggling to generate interest in science until they combined CK-12 with Newsella and NPR, which led to increased engagement and independent exploration by students. Despite some navigation challenges, the CK-12 platform can be an effective tool for promoting student engagement and interest in various subjects.
