If You Could See an Atom

This app is for use in the classroom and allows kids to share a fun experience while learning that the world is made of atoms. It can also be enjoyed as an e-book. Knowing that air is made of moving molecules, by observing simulations in real time, is the first step for kids to understand the world scientifically.
The field of view is changeable on the screen that has a gesture icon. A screen with a temperature bar can simulate changes in thermal conditions.
The simulations can be treated as classroom experiments whereby kids are encouraged to discuss their expectations in advance and select predicted results. It is fun to learn what happens when the average speed of molecular motion changes; the actual image of the word "average" makes it easier to understand the various phenomena that the word applies to.
Please note that these simulations are intended for beginners and do not accurately simulate molecular dynamics. The frequency of occurrence is exaggerated for rare type molecules in the air.
