Even More Phun!
May 9, 2008

A followup to a post about the Phun physics software - a new version of this free software is available for download for Macs.  Phun, a simple drawing program that then applies complex physics to your work, is also available for Windows and Linux. As you can see from this screenshot, a great deal of fun can be had in the program. It's almost as if it were a . . . game!


I accidently pulled the chain on the bottom of the S, causing it to knock the L and J out of alignment in my gravity free world. Oops. This is a great tool for use in physics programs certainly, but also would be quite fun in elementary school. Let students play with this and explore, and then have a conversation about why things happen the way they do.
