Material Detail

Archimedes' Laboratory

Archimedes' Laboratory

A high-content, award-winning puzzle site that is divided into six main categories: puzzles & tests, optical illusions, custom puzzles, teachers' resource, curiosities, art & language. Among the myriad of fun things, visitors will find number games, riddles, puzzles with downloadable pieces, oxymorons, and even a gift shop. A principal objective throughout the site is the enhancement of critical thinking skills. Here’s a quote from Scientific American (May 27, 2003): "This virtual lab borrows the empirical spirit and creative curiosity that Archimedes brought to his work and invites visitors to explore with the same expectations for mind-blowing discovery."
