Measurement Meadow

For our class project in Collaborative Design and Research of Technology: Integrated curriculum, Winter 2007, my group created an interactive measurement story for first graders. The students expressed enthusiasm for the program, and their teacher told us that after using the applet his students were able to correctly use a ruler (something he has noticed his students having trouble with in previous years). The website for the applet can be found on Gorp.
