One of the things that I enjoyed when taking physics courses was drawing the little diagrams to help explain the problem that I was trying to solve. This is a technique that is good for all manner of disciplines, but it seems to have been adopted best by Physics. So when I saw this game, I was pumped.
Crayon Physics is more an “Incredible Machine” game or a “Little Big Planet Lite”, but it certainly looks fun. If I were a Jr. High/Middle School Science teacher, I’d be all over this game to help get students “into” doing the diagrams that will carry them through their careers in Science and perhaps even in other disciplines as well.
