**Session Description**
//Engage your students in STEM learning with free simulations from the PhET Project (http://phet.colorado.edu). The 102 sims are animated, interactive, game-like environments which engage students in active thinking, encourage experimentation, and help develop visual and conceptual models of physical phenomena. This session will introduce the sims and the research that informs their design and use. Session participants will exchange ideas for using PhET sims with their online learning environment.//
