Work through these workshops to learn about PhET’s suggested pedagogical strategies. Alternatively, take our Coursera specialization "Active Learning in STEM with PhET Interactive Simulations" and receive a certificate for a fee.
Math teachers with devices for every student may take the condensed Teaching Math with PhET workshop.
Introduction to PhET
Learn how to access and share PhET simulations with your students and explore the features that make PhET sims a powerful tool for science and mathematics teachers.
