| [http://phet.colorado.edu/ PhET] is a site for interactive simulations for science (physics, biology, chemistry, Earth sciences) and [[Math]] at elementary, middle school, high school and University levels, from the University of Colorado at Boulder, USA, that provides fun, free, interactive, research-based science and mathematics simulations. The simulations are written in [[Java]], [[Flash]] or [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTML5 HTML5], and can be run online or downloaded to your computer. All simulations are open source.

| ==Can you embed PhET code in the Moodle Quiz?==
| |
| According to [https://moodle.org/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=315338#unread this post], Tim Hunt tried this (with the balancing act SIM), with these results:
| |
| * At first it did not work, because his test Moodle site is running on [[HTTP security|https]], and the embed code has http://, so it gets blocked by browser security settings.
| |
| * However, editing the URL in the embed code to be https, then it worked.

| ==Embedding a Phet simulation in a Moodle Page==
| |
| It is quite easy to insert the HTML5 code into a Moodle [[Page]]. Just remember to activate the <> button in the [[Text editor]].

| ==Embedding a PhET simulation in a Moodle question==

| When you click the 'Save changes' button, the simulation code will be saved and you can see the preview when you edit the question:
