OneNote now supports interactive embed integration with PhET simulations and Coggle.It mind maps

MikeTholfsen This is wonderful news! I've been a user of both OneNote and PhET simulations. To be able to combine the two is amazing. Unfortunately there is one drawback: As soon as you navigate away from the OneNote page (to a different OneNote page), the simulation reverts to the start state. This causes it to lose a lot of its usability. If a teacher could set the simulation to a certain state (and keep it in that state) it would have been fantastic! Imagine the kind of interactive content you could create and then distribute it to all students. Now one would probably do it by embedding the simulation and then adding a screenshot of the setup one would like them to create.

Also, if students could create certain simulated setups and retain them - this could be the answer to an assignment. For example, I want students to build electrical circuits and I want to see that they have done it correctly. This is not possible at the moment. One will have to get the students to take a screenshot of what they have done to retain the state of the simulation.
