Interactive websites engage students by providing information and
resources
along with practice, simulations, and other learning activities.
They can be
highly interactive, content-rich simulations such as the Frog Guts
(subscription-based) simulation and the Leonardo's Workshop
games. Or,
traditional drill and practice like Funbrain or book quizzes like
Book
Adventure.
Some people think of interactive games as "low level."
However, it depends on
how they are used. Are students making a good use of their time?
Are the
activities realistic, yet challenging? Can you use the games to
promote
learning in another area? Can you write about the activities?

The Idea: The idea behind the site is to offer mathematics as
well as some fun bits, and to combine the two wherever possible.
Math Is Fun!
At the heart of Science NetLinks are standards-based lesson plans
that incorporate reviewed Internet resources, and can be selected
according to specific benchmarks and grade ranges. Each lesson is
tied to at least one learning goal and uses research-based
instructional strategies that support student learning. The
lessons are written for the teacher, but include student-ready
materials such as student sheets (student reproducibles) or E-
Sheets (online worksheets that enable students to engage directly
in Internet activities).
