In Electrifying Adventures, students complete such tasks as stringing lights to illuminate the way through a maze of caverns or using electrical devices to overcome barriers to learn basic concepts about electrical circuits. This easy-to-use and motivating science inquiry product will help kids understand the differences between series and parallel circuits, the differences between batteries’ voltage and lifespan, and the use of switches.

Introduction

Electrifying Adventures is a program designed to help you learn about electrical circuits. Some of the things you will learn about are:

  • How to form complete circuits
  • How different voltages affect circuits
  • How series circuits differ from parallel circuits

Management Options allow you to Choose the Difficulty Level (This determines whether machine circuits Can use switches multiple batteries)

  • Clear the Batry’s Brightest list
  • Clear the Saved Games list
