New Version of Circuits Gizmo Released!

As mentioned in a previous post to The Buzz, we've been hard at work on a new version of the popular Circuits Gizmo -- and we're extremely happy to announce that it is now live on the site, completed with updated Exploration Guide and assessment questions.

Use the link below to get there quickly:

In addition to eliminating a bug with the previous version's handling of certain 'short' circuits, the new version includes:

  1. circuits can have multiple batteries
  2. an ohmmeter to measure resistance -- also, you can now directly control the precision (# of decimal places displayed) of all the meters          
  3. fuses

Let us know what you think!
