Yenka - A new generation of educational modelling tools.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Simulieren Sie, wie Sie möchten, vom Entwurf von Schaltkreisen und optischen Systemen über die Modellierung der Wellenausbreitung bis hin zur Beschleunigung von Massen und der grafischen Darstellung ihrer Bewegung.

Es gibt eine große Auswahl an Lektionen und Aktivitäten, die Ihnen den Einstieg erleichtern.

Es kann als flexibles Demonstrationstool verwendet werden - zum Beispiel auf einem Whiteboard. Alternativ können die Schüler Yenka selbst verwenden, um Konzepte in einer sicheren, genauen Welt zu untersuchen.

Wellen

Mit Yenka können Sie die Wellenausbreitung von oben nach unten betrachten und Schlüsselphänomene - wie Brechung, Interferenz, Beugung und Reflexion - mit Wasser, Schall oder EM-Wellen untersuchen.

Punkt- oder ebene Wellenquellen und eine sich bewegende Quelle, deren Geschwindigkeit und Peilung Sie steuern können, erzeugen Wellen. Sie können auch die Frequenz, Phase und Amplitude jeder Quelle steuern.

Fügen Sie Hindernisse, Reflektoren und Schlitze hinzu, um Reflexion, Brechung, Beugung und Interferenz zu untersuchen. Positionieren Sie diese Komponenten, wo immer Sie möchten, und steuern Sie Eigenschaften wie Größe, Ausrichtung, Dämpfung, Schlitzabstand und -breite sowie das Material, aus dem sie bestehen.

Mit Yenka können Sie mit einer Reihe von Komponenten simulieren, darunter Linsen, Prismen, Spiegel und Lichtquellen, und Sie können Strahlendiagramme modellieren.

Sie können Ihre eigenen Bilder importieren und untersuchen, wie sie aussehen, wenn sie in Linsen in Spiegeln betrachtet werden. Wie unten gezeigt, werden Intensität und Unschärfe modelliert.

Die Strahlen des Objekts werden während der Simulation gezeichnet, sodass Sie ihren Weg durch das optische System verfolgen können.

Die Eigenschaften aller optischen Komponenten können geändert werden, entweder durch Ziehen mit der Maus oder durch Eingeben neuer Werte. Außerdem können Sie die Komponenten beliebig positionieren - eine echte virtuelle Werkbank.

Fügen Sie Bälle, Blöcke und Karren hinzu, positionieren Sie sie nach Belieben und lassen Sie sie fallen, beschleunigen oder kollidieren.

Definieren Sie Parameter wie Masse, Elastizität, Reibungskoeffizient, Abmessungen, Geschwindigkeit und Antriebskraft und fügen Sie Ihre eigenen Bilder hinzu, um Kontext zu geben.

Bringen Sie Stäbe und Federn an, um einfache Pendel, Federschwingungen, das Hookesche Gesetz und Rotationsbewegungen zu untersuchen.

Fügen Sie Ihren Simulationen Schwerkraft hinzu - Sie können die Stärke dieses Feldes sowie die Elastizität und Reibung des Bodens einstellen.

Sie können die Bewegung Ihrer Teile grafisch darstellen - stellen Sie eine breite Palette von Größen dar, wie Geschwindigkeit, Impuls, kinetische und potenzielle Energie oder Beschleunigung.

Analoge Elektronik & Digitale Elektronik

Yenka Elektronik ist ein leistungsstarker Simulator, der Sie Schaltungen mit Hilfe von digitalelektronischen Komponenten, inklusive Logic Gates, Zählern, Dechiffrierer, Schieberegister, Puffer und Treibern erstellen lässt.

Beide nach dem Beispiel der gefeierten Elektroniksimulation in Crocodile Clips entwickelten 4000er und 7400er-Serien TTL-Komponenten sind erhältlich.
Die Komponenten reichen von einfachem Stromzubehör und -schaltern bis zu Inputs, Outputs und Halbleitern.

Elektrizität und Magnetismus

Energieerzeugung

Mit einer Reihe von simulierten Kraftwerken können Sie Energie erzeugen, um Ihr simuliertes Netz zu versorgen.

Untersuchen Sie alternativ elektromagnetische Effekte: Bewegen Sie einen Magneten durch einen gewickelten Draht und kontrollieren Sie die Anzahl der Windungen im Draht und den Durchmesser der Spule.

Kraftübertragung

Schließen Sie ein Umspannwerk an Ihr Kraftwerk an, wählen Sie das Übersetzungsverhältnis und verbinden Sie es dann über Stromleitungen mit dem Stromnetz.

Untersuchen Sie die Auswirkungen von Änderungen des spezifischen Widerstands, des Kabeldurchmessers oder der Kabellänge und verwenden Sie Hochspannungsdrähte aus Aluminium oder Niederspannungsdrähte aus Kupfer.

Schließen Sie schließlich Häuser, Fabriken oder Städte an Ihr Stromnetz an, um den erzeugten Strom zu nutzen.

Schaltkreise simulieren

Sie können auch Schaltpläne zeichnen und simulieren. Wählen Sie aus einer Reihe von Komponenten und verbinden Sie sie, indem Sie mit der Maus Drähte ziehen.

Bearbeiten Sie Parameter wie Widerstand oder Kapazität und stellen Sie Größen wie Spannung und Strom aus Ihrer Simulation grafisch dar.

Sphero makes remarkably cool, programmable robots and STEAM-based educational tools that transform the way kids learn, create and invent through coding, science, music, and the arts. Using information available, combined with skills acquired, can help make good decisions. That's the basic process of critical thinking. Critical thinkers can solve problems by keeping a clear mind and rational thoughts that will help you analyze a situation and make a sound decision.
STEM teaching is the hands-on exploration of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics concepts, and it's becoming an increasingly important part of modern-day education. STEM skills grant students the 21st-century abilities needed to perform a wide range of both essential and highly-skilled jobs.
Risk-taking, leaping, trying again, and failing are part of our genetic material. Without it, humans would not have inhabited every corner of this planet. Oftentimes we can see failure, particularly in exams, as negative - one of the worst things we can allow students to experience. But what if we allow students to fail in a safe space and make learning a personal endeavor? Go #BeyondCode and enrich your learning experience with engaging STEAM activities that foster creativity and collaboration.

Sphero News Amanda Vaden

February is Black History Month, an important time to recognize the challenges and injustices Black people have faced throughout history and into today. It's also a time to celebrate and honor the many notable changemakers of color, especially those of which we can thank for pioneering the way through influential discoveries in science, technology, engineering and math (STEM).

At School Sphero Team

Unplugged coding is teaching coding concepts without using devices. It is learning how to code without writing lines of code. When coding unplugged, students use their knowledge to work on computational challenges that will help them understand the concepts they'll use in coding projects.

Installation

Snap4Arduino requires that you have StandardFirmata installed in your board.

To do so, follow these simple steps:

1. If you haven't already, download and install the Arduino environment by following the instructions on http://arduino.cc/en/Main/Software.

2. Open the Arduino IDE, go to File → Examples → Firmata → StandardFirmata

3. Connect your board to a USB port in your computer

4. In the Tools menu, select the board version and the serial port where the board is connected

5. Go to File and click on Upload

6. Snap4Arduino will now be able to interact with your board.

The previous instructions cover the initial setup of your board. If your Arduino board comes with Firmata preinstalled or you have previously installed it yourself, you don't need to follow them again. Still, to prevent any possible issues with drivers (on Windows) or permissions, it may be a good idea to install the Arduino IDE anyway.

StandardFirmata is the basic requirement for a board to be reachable from Snap4Arduino, but you can get extended features by using others Firmata versions. See the Devices section for more information.

ChromeOS app

You can install the ChromeOS app from the Chrome Web Store or download the package, uncompress it and drag and drop the crx file into the chrome://extensions browser tab. This is a limited version of Snap4Arduino that doesn't support extended Firmata versions of the Snap! JavaScript block.

GNU/Linux

You just need to unpack the package. In most window environments you can just click on Snap4Arduino. If this fails, you can always run./run from the command line.

MacOS X

Unzip the package and run the Snap4Arduino package. If you wish, you can move it to your Applications folder so you can access it as a regular app.

Microsoft Windows

Just unzip the package and run the installer.

Web version for Chrome/Chromium

Online version requires a Chrome/Chromium plugin to connect to Arduino boards. To install it, just download the plugin package and unzip it. This will create a folder named Chrome_Snap4ArduinoConnector_ 5.1.0. Then, go to chrome://extensions in your browser, activate the developer mode and drag and drop that folder into that browser tab.

If you prefer to run it offline or in your own server, use this downloadable version.

Embedded

The embedded command line version works in any GNU/Linux based machine, including embedded platforms and single board computers. New generation Arduino boards like Yun, Tian or Industrial 101 can run this version right inside the board, and if you have a regular Arduino and any kind of Gnu/Linux based single board computer, you can always have the latter be the host computer to the Arduino board, giving autonomy to your project without having to modify your Snap4Arduino program at all.

Check out this section of our GitHub wiki.

Happy prototyping!
