🤖AI Literacy
Train your own image classifier
Students step into The Machine and teach an AI to tell cats from dogs – no code, just examples – then meet the idea that an AI only ever knows what you feed it.
- Brief How machine learning works: you show examples, not rules, and the model finds the pattern.
- Play Feed cat and dog photos into the core, press TRAIN, then PREDICT a new photo and read the confidence.
- Check You trained it only on cats – shown a dog, what will it confidently call it?

🌋Geography
Erupt a volcano
A volcanic island where students feed the magma chamber, watch the pressure climb, and blow the top – lava fountains and an ash plume, safely and as many times as they like.
- Brief What magma is, why pressure builds, and the moment it becomes lava – with definitions to note.
- Play Turn up the magma supply, watch the pressure gauge fill, and trigger the eruption.
- Check Molten rock flowing out of the crater – is it lava, ash, or still magma?

🚀Physics
Newton's Second Law playground
A launcher on a neon range where the projectile really flies – so F = ma stops being a formula and becomes a dial with a visible consequence.
- Brief Force, mass and acceleration – the same push moves a light ball further than a heavy one.
- Play Fire the launcher, drag the mass and gravity dials, and watch the arc answer back live.
- Check Same force, double the mass – does the arc get shorter, longer or stay the same?

🧪Chemistry
Combustion & balancing equations
A reaction bench that runs the experiments too fast, hot or costly for a real lab – safely, repeatably, and as many times as it takes for the rule to land.
- Brief Reactants become products and atoms are never lost – mass is conserved on both sides.
- Play Mix methane with oxygen and watch the exothermic burn, then balance the equation to match.
- Check Balance 2H₂ + O₂ → ? to open the gate – is it H₂O₂ or 2H₂O?

🫀Biology
Ride the circulatory system
Shrink the class to cell-scale and send them through a beating heart, following a single red blood cell on its loop through the lungs and body.
- Brief The four chambers, and the difference between arteries carrying blood out and veins bringing it back.
- Play Follow a red blood cell from the heart to the lungs and back, watching it pick up oxygen.
- Check Which vessel carries freshly oxygenated blood away from the lungs?

🏛️History
Walk a street of 1965 Singapore
Instead of squinting at a photocopy, students walk a reconstructed shophouse row, inspect the sources first-hand, and piece the story together.
- Brief The context of independence – the pressures and events that shaped 1965.
- Play Explore the shophouse street, open artefacts and read primary sources up close.
- Check Put the key events in order, then judge what a source can and can't tell you.

📐Mathematics
Graphing the parabola
A coordinate terrain students can climb, where dragging the coefficients bends and shifts the curve in real time – abstraction made touchable.
- Brief What y = x² actually means, and how each coefficient changes the shape.
- Play Drag the coefficients and watch the parabola stretch, flip and slide across the axes.
- Check Given the curve, where does it cross the x-axis – what are its roots?

Anatomy of the human eye
A giant cross-section eye students walk around, tracing a ray of light through each structure – dissection-free, and repeatable until every label sticks.
- Brief The parts of the eye – cornea, lens and retina – and the job each one does.
- Play Bend a beam through the cornea, focus it with the lens and land the image on the retina.
- Check As light enters the eye, which structure bends it first?
