Featured Experiment: Spot Reaction Timer

The Spot Reaction Timer experiment, allows pupils to test their reaction times. The Spot Reaction Timer also appears in Phase 7 of CensusAtSchool.
Why not try: Memory Test
The Memory Test allow students to see how good their memory is. They investigate whether abstract shapes, everyday objects, colours or shapes are easier to remember, and if the arrangement of objects affects memory.
