'''PhET simulations'''



||  In this tutorial, we will use the '''Number Line: Integers''' '''PhET simulation'''.

|-
|| Point to the simulation in the Downloads folder


'''Number Line: Integers simulation'''



||  I have already downloaded the '''simulation''' to my '''Downloads''' folder.
|-
|| Double click on the '''number-line-integers_en.html''' file
||  To open the simulation, double click on the '''number-line-integers_en.html''' file. 


The file will open in your default browser. 



|-
|| Point to the simulation interface
||  This is the interface of the '''Number Line: Integers''' simulation.
|-
|| Point to each screen
||  The interface has two screens, '''Explore''' and '''Generic'''



|-
|| Click on '''Explore''' screen
||  Click on the '''Explore''' screen.
|-
|| Point to the number line.
||  The screen has a vertical '''number line ''' to depict the elevation of objects.
|-
|| Point to the '''Objects''' box.
||  This is the '''Objects '''box at the bottom of the screen. We can drag and place objects on the number line. 



|-
|| Point to the different scenarios.
||  We can view this '''simulation''' in different scenarios. 


The first one is the comparison of elevations of a person, a bird and a fish. 


The second is the comparison of two bank account balances. 


The last is the comparison of temperatures of different locations. 



|-
|| Point to the smaller '''reset''' button.
||  The smaller '''reset''' button resets the current scenario. 
|-
|| Point to the information check boxes.
||  On the top right, we have the following check boxes.


'''Number Line''', '''Labels''',  and ''' Absolute Value'''


We can use these check boxes to show and hide the details. 



|-
|| Point to the '''Comparison Statement ''' on the top centre of the screen
||  At the top, is the '''comparison statement'''.


It can be minimised.

We can again maximise it when required.
|-
|| Point to the '''reset''' button
||  The '''reset''' button resets the simulation.
|-
|| Point to the '''Objects''' box
||  Let us put the objects inside the scenario. 


We can place them at any point on the line. 


Their position from the sea level is represented on the number line.



|-
|| Check the '''Absolute Value''' check box
||  Let us check the '''Absolute value''' check box. 


It shows us the distance as an absolute value.


It also tells us the direction of the three objects. 



|-
|| Point to the '''Person'''.
||  The person is placed 62 metres above sea level.

This is represented as 62 metres on the number line. 
|-
|| Point to the '''Bird'''.
||  The bird is placed 30 metres above sea level.

This is represented as 30 metres on the number line. 
|-
|| Point to the '''Fish'''.
||  The fish is placed 45 metres below sea level.

This is represented as -45 metres on the number line. 
|-
|| Point to the '''Comparison Statement'''.
||  See the comparison statement at the top.


-45 is less than 30 which is less than 62.


Using these arrows, we can view the comparison in ascending or descending order. 



|-
|| Point to the sea level on the screen.
||  Note that an object can also be placed on the surface of the sea.



|-
|| Drag the '''Bird''' down to the sea level.
||  Let us drag the bird down to sea level. 
|-
|| Point to the number line.
||  In this case, it is represented as 0 on the number line. 



|-
|| Click on the second scenario.
||  Let us select the second scenario. 



|-
|| Point to the number line.
||  This number line represents bank account balance.



|-
|| Point to the buttons on the left of the number line.
||  Using these buttons we can add or remove money from the account.


We can also drag the objects on the number line. 



|-
|| Point to the toggle switch.
||  The toggle switch on the right, allows us to represent one or two accounts.

|-
|| Click the add money button for object 1.
||  Let us deposit 5 dollars in the first bank account.


The object gets bigger and moves 5 places to the right on the number line. 



|-
|| Click the remove money button for object 2
||  Let us withdraw 3 dollars from the second bank account.


The object gets smaller and moves 3 places to the left on the number line.



|-
|| '''Slide number 7'''

'''Transactions table'''
||  Now, let us perform the following transactions in the simulation. 


They represent weekly activities of two different people. 


(Note: See table 1)



|-
|| Point to the number line.
||  This is the result of the transactions. 
|-
|| Check the '''Absolute Value''' check box.
||  Now check the '''Absolute Value''' check box. 
|-
|| Point to the bank account 1.
||  Bank account 1 has a balance of 30 dollars.

It has moved further right from the origin.

Its relative position from the origin is plus 30.



|-
|| Point to the bank account 1.
||  Bank account 2 is in debt of 17 dollars. 

It has moved further left from the origin.

Its relative position from the origin is -17.
|-
|| Point to the number line.
||  The total difference between the two accounts is 30-(-17) which is 47 dollars. 


This is represented on the number line.



|-
|| Point to the comparison statement.

Point to the two bank accounts.
||  The comparison statement shows that -17 is less than 30.


Users can change the values in the two bank accounts and check the differences.



|-
|| Click on the third scenario.
||  Let us select the third scenario. 



|-
|| Point to the number line.
||  This vertical number line represents the temperature of different locations. 


We can view this in the ''''Fahrenheit''' or '''Celsius''' scale.

The ''''Fahrenheit''' scale is chosen by default. 



|-
|| Click on ℃ radio button. 
|  Let us choose the '''Celsius''' scale. 
|-
|| Point to the drop down list.
||  We can select the months of the year from the drop down on the right.


Temperatures on the map will vary accordingly. 


January is chosen by default. 



|-
|| Point to the '''Objects''' box.
||  Let us put the thermometers at different locations on the map. 
|-
|| Check the '''Absolute Value''' checkbox.
||  Let us check the '''Absolute Value''' checkbox. 


It will show us the temperature purely in terms of its magnitude. 



|-
|| Point to the '''Location A'''.
||  The temperature of location A is 24 degrees above 0.

This is represented as 24 degrees Celsius on the number line. 



|-
|| Point to the '''Location B'''.
||  The temperature of location B is 19 degrees above 0.

This is represented as 19 degrees Celsius on the number line. 



|-
|| Point to the '''Location C'''.
||  The temperature of location C is 33 degrees below 0.

This is represented as -33 degrees Celsius on the number line. 



|-
|| Point to the '''Comparison Statement'''.
||  This is also reflected in the comparison statement. 


-33 is less than 19 which is less than 24.



|-
|| Point to the number line.
||  Observe that temperatures above 0 degrees are represented as positive integers. 


And temperatures below 0 degrees are represented as negative integers. 



|-
|| '''Slide number 8'''

'''Temperature Comparison table'''
||  This table represents the temperatures of 3 different locations over 5 months. 

(Note: See table 2)


It indicates the change in the climatic conditions in various parts of the world.



|-
|| Click on '''Generic''' screen.
||  Now click on the '''Generic''' screen.


The Generic screen has some new tools. 



|-
|| Point to the '''Scale'''.
||  From this list, we can select the '''scale''' of the number line. 


-10 to 10 is chosen by default.



|-
|| Point to the number line representations.
||  We can choose between a '''horizontal''' or '''vertical ''' representation of the number line. 


'''Horizontal''' is chosen by default.



|-
|| Point to top right check boxes.
||  On the top right, we have the following check boxes. 


'''Labels''', '''Tick Marks''', '''Opposite''', and '''Absolute Value'''.


We can use these check boxes to show and hide the details. 



|-
|| Point to the number line
||  Explore the '''Generic''' screen to understand the number line concepts generally. 



|-
|| 
||  With this, we have come to the end of this tutorial. Let us summarise.
