MEteor, an interactive computer simulation, teaches middle school students about gravity and planetary motion in an immersive, whole-body environment. From left, doctoral student Shuai Wang and Robb Lindgren, a professor of educational psychology and of curriculum and instruction, found in a recent study that the astronomy game's whole-body learning activities were linked with significant learning gains, greater student engagement and more positive attitudes toward science.
