Hi Teacher!
We know how it is. You want your students to succeed. You want them to enjoy your subject the way that you do. And you want to see them engaged.
At Phenomena, we believe that engagement is the first step to STEM success. Phenomena experiences are approachable and fun, catering to even the most reluctant learners. We aim to present concepts intuitively so they are accessible to all students.
Phenomena is here to help. We make it easy to engage every student and give them the chance at success they deserve.
Sincerely,
the Phenomena Team
Here are a handful of ways that teachers use Phenomena Experiences in their classroom:
As a “do now” at the start of class
As a front-of-class demonstration
As the intro to a Socratic discussion
As a virtual / remote lab experience
As an alternative to a textbook assignment
As an extra credit option
We’d love to hear from you. Send us a note and let us know what your Phenomena experience is like.
Simple Variables (Algebra)
If you’re new to Algebra, you’re probably wondering about the letters in the equations. Those are variables. They’re like magic numbers that could be any number. Play with them here and see how they work.
Intro to Integrals (Calculus)
What exactly is an integral? In simple terms, it’s just the area of a graph. In this experience, you’ll explore integrals of simple functions and graphs you draw yourself. And now you know Calculus!
Drawing Derivatives (Calculus)
Tackle our scariest topic yet -- derivatives in calculus! Understand this infamously difficult topic with ease. This simple drawing game will have you conquering calculus in no time. Enter, if you dare! #derivatives #calculus #math #spookyscary #halloween #drawing #mathgame
Tug of Force (Physics)
It’s a food fight! Learn how forces can interact with one another, oftentimes to accomplish a task -- in this case, stealing someone else’s dinner! Visualize net force and learn how to calculate it. Satisfy your appetite for learning and become a force to be reckoned with!
Slope Intercept (Algebra)
Face a famous formula head-on in Phenomena’s new Slope Intercept experience! Manipulate slope and Y intercept in real time to complete fun challenges. Mountains will be climbed, turtles will be saved… and equations will be linear.
Balancing Equations (Chemistry)
Dive headfirst into balancing chemical equations! See firsthand how matter is conserved in chemical reactions! Visualize how reactants combine to form products, and learn how every single atom should be accounted for on both sides of a chemical equation. Perhaps Thanos was talking about chemistry when he said, ‘Perfectly balanced... as all things should be’.
Intro to Vectors (Physics)
Encounter vectors in the wild, courtesy of Phenomena! Draw with magnitude and direction; draw with X and Y components! On the course, or in the parking lot -- vectors are everywhere, more than you thought!
