I can see using this applet with intervention students all the way through to
12th grade. Intervention students love using computer simulations and this one
is very simple to use although it does have its limitations in steps versus
speed. At this level though, I don't care about steps versus speed. I would
also bring this into physical science classes to review graphing and time versus
distance.
