According to recent research (http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/journal/07475632), video gaming is linked to increased creativity. Web-based experiences can spark that creativity by fusing online games with direct learning opportunities, which expose children to math and science during screen time. For example, Raytheon’s Sum of all Thrills (http://www.mathmovesu.com/#/sum-of-all-thrills) enables students to design their own roller coaster rides, pilot jet planes or race bobsleds using mathematical concepts. At www.mathmovesu.com, students can build loops, turns and barrel rolls and see how math and science principles come into play. What are some of your favorite ways to engage children in math and science?
