Nova Elements

Get it here.
Cost: Free






UDL Guideline 3.2 - Highlight patterns, critical features, big ideas, and relationships
In addition to allowing students to "build" each element, this periodic table connects users to the Nova Elements video series.

General Critique
By having students build elements with the correct number of protons, neutrons, and electrons, they are reinforcing traditional classroom taught concepts. This specific benefit of this app is nothing more than replication in a digital format when it comes to scientific content. The access to videos about different elements helps learners to build upon previous knowledge.
