Science Education for a New Generation
Physics for Phun!
Playing with with Algodoo is engaging and fun. With simple draw-and-click editing you can build and interact with physical objects exploring the real world. Build and play with rigid bodies, fluids, chains, gears, gravity, friction, springs, hinges, etc. Interact by click and drag, tilt and shake. Use color traces, graphs, forces, etc. for enhanced visualization.

About Algodoo
Algodoo is an easy-to-use drawing tool empowered by physics simulations. Everything you draw can come to life! Making use of the same core technology as in AGX Dynamics, Algodoo is designed and developed to be both educational and entertaining.
As the number one software for creating interactive physics simulations, Algodoo is the perfect tool for learning, exploring, experimenting and laborating with real physics. The Algodoo software is designed and optimized for future classroom solutions like 1:1 computing, interactive whiteboard systems and other modern technology. Also including content like lesson plans, pre-made scenes and tutorials, making Algodoo both easy to learn and use.

abstract = {Algodoo (http://www.algodoo.com) is a digital sandbox for physics 2D simulations. It allows students and teachers to easily create simulated “scenes” and explore physics through a user-friendly and visually attractive interface. In this paper, we present different ways in which students and teachers can use Algodoo to visualize and solve physics problems, investigate phenomena and processes, and engage in out-of-school activities and projects. Algodoo, with its approachable interface, inhabits a middle ground between computer games and “serious” computer modeling. It is suitable as an entry-level modeling tool for students of all ages and can facilitate discussions about the role of computer modeling in physics.},
