Lab objectives and outcomes

Students will be able to calculate the theoretical probability of a simple event using virtual spinners, dice, or coins.
Students will be able to conduct multiple trials with virtual spinners, dice, and coins to observe and record the frequency of simple event outcomes.
Students will be able to differentiate between theoretical and experimental probability by comparing observed outcomes from multiple trials with predicted probabilities for simple events.

Track learner progress

Run this simulation with a class and watch it happen: who started, who finished, and how long each learner took. Drill into a run to see what they actually did.

Group sessions

SimGenie acts as a built-in lab assistant. A learner who gets stuck can ask for a hint by voice, and it adapts its guidance to what they are doing in the scene.
