Engage young learners in the wonder of space. This app uses augmented reality to display the actual placement of stars in the sky. Use the camera to scan the air and see constellations appear in front of your eyes.
This app was created by NASA. It uses augmented reality to make 3D spacecrafts appear in the room. You can explore the 3D images and make the spacecrafts move directly through the app.
This amazing app enables you to explore human biology. It is a great learning resource for any young scientist.
This is a perfect tool to use when explaining the features and functionality of the heart. It's a truly engaging science app.
The Sky Walk is a magical new app that enables you to identify the stars, planets, galaxies, constellations and even satellites you can see above. Just stand anywhere and hold your iPhone, iPod touch or iPad up to the sky and The Sky Walk will display the names of the stars, planets and other objects you are able to see, just like magic!
Even if your view is obscured by clouds or daylight, The Sky Walk app will know which stars, planets, galaxies, constellations and satellites are hiding from your view! You have to use this app to realize just how amazing it is!
The Sky Walk does this by using your location data provided by the GPS and compass built in to your device. It then cross references your location data with its inbuilt map of the sky and overlays the stars, planets, galaxies, constellations and satellites names on your screen. It really is magical and will amaze you, and anyone you show it to!
The Sky Walk really is simply magical!
Sky Walk is amazing people worldwide! Look at how the magic is working -
IDENTIFY HUNDRED'S OF OBJECTS IN THE SKY WALK
AMAZE ANYONE YOU SHOW IT TO, WORKS JUST LIKE MAGIC!
A UNIVERSAL APP - PAY ONCE AND GET THE IPAD & IPHONE VERSIONS!
WORKS ANYWHERE, NO DATA CONNECTION REQUIRED!
AMAZING PRICE FOR AN AMAZING APP!
• Beautiful New Sky View with Original Art Work Constellations: All new high quality imagery and super smooth sky tracking, with the ability to ‘share your sky’ through social media and email.
• Stargazing Weather: Detailing cloud cover, temperature, wind speeds and visibility, categorised into simple icons informing you of whether stargazing conditions are good, fair or poor for the night ahead.
• Sky Info: Including accurate weekly live data on moon phases, sun rise and sun set times, daylight duration and sun elevation, ensuring users are both fully equipped and well-informed in their stargazing.
Heart 3D is a learning activity which provides an immersive learning experience. You can learn about the structure and functions of human heart along with various factors affecting the normal functioning of the heart. With supporting text information and audio, along with “rotation” and “pinch to zoom” interactivities on the heart, it makes it much easier to visualize the human heart and understand its functioning.
Chemical reactions don’t just happen—you have to make them happen. ChemCrafter lets you build your own lab to run fun and creative experiments. Use the Chem-o-convertor to measure energy released and gain points that unlock new experiments, equipment, and chemicals. Use your new supplies to craft more gases, liquids, and solids.
This is a fantastic app for any curious young biologist. It allows you to search through the anatomy of a frog and understand the biology of an amphibian. Children can do all of this without killing a frog or getting their hands dirty.
This is a great app that can introduce the extremely complex concept of evolution. Pupils can create worlds and begin to introduce life into ecosystems. They then have to monitor the movements of prey and predators as well as observing the effect of vegetation on their own world.
Pocket Anatomy is a fantastic app when it comes to exploring the human body. It is far more engaging than a text book or DVD on the matter. Amazing graphics with 3D revolvable bodies make this an exciting app to use.
Used by educators everywhere to bring motion Physics to life in the classroom, Coaster Physics is now optimized for iOS 8 and for the latest iPhones and iPads. What are the laws of Physics governing the motion of a roller coaster? How are speed and acceleration related? How does the g-force change at different points along the track? Design and ride your very own realistic roller coaster, and see how quantities like speed, acceleration, energy and g-force change as you ride along the track.
It is the perfect tool to introduce in key stage one for young physicists. Children can engage in brilliant learning games that can excite even the most reluctant scientist.
This is a great little app to help children understand the effect of different gravitational pulls. Children can find out how much they weigh on different planets and text other items.
This is a really good mobile sensor app that can help learners to make environmental measurements. External sensors can be used in conjunction with this app to measure temperature, speed, weight and so on.
Smart Microscope is the first virtual mobile microscope for everyone! In this revolutionary app you get over 70 microscopic slides of amazing insects, spiders, dangerous parasites, beautiful plants and medical specimens of humans. Smart Microscope can be used like a real microscope, with which you can zoom into the virtual slides with your fingers. There are numerous expert comments on all slides and in all zoom levels to understand the biology underneath.
All you need is an internet connection to access these high-resolution images from anywhere. The app contains 4 languages: English, Spanish, German, French. There is also a free LITE-version to try out this unique app.
Also highly recommended for children!
This is just a great free resource for any teacher that is engaging in scientific teaching. The app offers a huge number of science videos for young children to watch and take in.
Video Physics brings automated object tracking and video analysis to iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad. Capture video of an object in motion, then tap to track automatically. Video Physics instantly creates trajectory, position, and velocity graphs for the object.
Video Physics is perfect for science students and instructors. Perform on-the-go analysis of interesting motion. Measure the velocity of a child's swing, a roller-coaster, or a car. Or, take a video of a basketball free throw shot. Video Physics will display the path of the ball and provide graphs of y vs. x as well as the x and y position and velocity as a function of time.
Features of Video Physics:
• Capture a new video using the built-in camera, choose a video from your Photo Library, or use one of our sample videos
• Track an object automatically or manually add points to the video frame
• Set the scale of the video using an object of known size
• Optionally set coordinate system location and rotation
• View graphs of trajectory and x/y position and velocity
• Export video with points
• Email the video and data for further analysis in Vernier's Logger Pro software for OS X and Windows
• Open data files directly in Vernier's Graphical Analysis app
Quotes from physics teachers:
"Just played with new Vernier video physics app on iPhone - it ROCKS! I remember the day when this would've cost thousands of dollars to do
." Mark Hines @mhines, teacher
"You should check out Vernier's Video Physics app. Students can email video analysis data to Logger Pro; very cool!!" @willkomme, physics teacher
Vernier’s Video Physics app is slick. - Ryan Bretag @ryanbretag, teacher and administrator

Hints for taking useful videos:
• Objects that are very different than their background (black/white) work best for automated tracking. It is also helpful to use a background with uniform color and shading. See our sample videos for examples.
• Do not move the camera. Analysis assumes the camera is fixed in position.
• The object in motion should remain approximately in a plane perpendicular to the viewing direction.
• Place an object with known dimensions, such as a meter stick, in the same plane as the motion. Use this to scale the video.
Video Physics is intended for use in science education. The video analysis done in Video Physics provides a useful technique for studying two-dimensional kinematics. You can do even more with Vernier's Graphical Analysis app for iPad, iPhone, and iPod touch or with Logger Pro software for Mac OS X and Windows.
