Science Max

School Age

Are you ready to take science experiments to the max?

This game offers an excellent opportunity for children to experiment and observe through trial and error the effects of their actions on objects; in this case, geometric building blocks used to form a structure.Unlike most games and activities that involve building stable structures, this game engages a deeper level of thinking as it asks the player to apply their understanding of structural stability to quickly and efficiently cause a structure to become unstable. Players will be able to gain this understanding by observing what causes structures to fail, rather than succeed.In subsequent game levels, students also apply their understanding of the structural stability of different shapes (i.e., begin with rectangles and move on to triangles and circles).

Light Up - Science Max

School Age

Players learn about about the properties of light by investigating how light interacts with objets in the environment. Players will apply knowledge of prisms, lenses and mirrors to direct a beam of light towards a target.

Bridge Works - Science Max

School Age

Players can build and test their own pasta bridge in Bridge Works. The concept of structural strength, and the notion of strong and stable structures, is fully investigated.

Interactive Machine - Science Max

School Age

Help create a chain reaction to make the Rube Goldberg machine work!This game offers an excellent opportunity for children to experiment (in the Creation Mode} and observe through trial and error (in the Test Machine Mode} how various devices can interact with each other to effect movement across distance. The game uses a puzzle-like game mechanic to motivate players to use their problem-solving skills to transfer energy from various objects to manipulate an object across a distance. Players apply knowledge gained from various episodes, including 3001 - Changing Energy, to change the position of objects so that the direction of their motion will change.
