Teachers can now add comments to student code to give targeted feedback. Learn more here: docs.tychos.org/docs/for-tea…

You can now add sound to your simulations. You can play simple tones, sound files, or sound oscillations. Here is a demonstration of add simple tones: tychos.org/en/scenarios/F2y4…

With the new gradient fill, students can easily make some pretty colorful and mesmerizing animations. #edtech #iTeachCS tychos.org/en/scenarios/x7A4…

You can also now apply gradient fills to many of the Tychos objects. Check out the example to see how to do this. tychos.org/en/scenarios/L2bk…

We have added a few new things recently to Tychos. You can add arcs with ease now, either as a "pie", "chord" or "open" - no need to use a poly_line. tychos.org/en/scenarios/QEhI…

Just added an arcade style button to Tychos for fun. Define a function in MathJs or Python and then call it when you press the button. In Python: tychos.org/en/scenarios/9wC7… In MathJs: tychos.org/en/scenarios/EclI…

We added a simple way to remove objects in Tychos so you can create animations like this: tychos.org/en/scenarios/zwoR…

The new Console tab in Tychos behaves very much like a REPL. You can now execute Python code from the prompt, or modify a simulation, or even run the help() command.

Tychos was made to be a simple to use computational modeling tool, but it can be used to teach Python in the browser as well.

You can now upload a csv file into Tychos and then reference that data in your scenario using a simple API. Here is the link to the documentation to learn more: docs.tychos.org/docs/learn/l…

With our improved collision detection functions, you can easily model some fun physics, like swinging bars hitting rolling balls, and other things! We will be posting many more examples for you to check out. tychos.org/en/scenarios/8m7E…

Here is a fun demo that highlights our new release that now allows you to detect collisions between lines and other shapes. This one uses an elastic force to "bounce" the ball. tychos.org/en/scenarios/Y6hX…

We just enhanced and updated our collision detection functions, and we think they are going to really enhance what you can do easily in Tychos. For one, lines have been added, and you can now get the intersection points. Here is a demo: tychos.org/en/scenarios/gptA…

Tables are back. We redesigned the interface for adding tables to your scenarios for recording data. We created this video that demonstrates how to use them: docs.tychos.org/docs/learn/v…

Finally getting around to playing with @TychosTeam, made a simple 2D oscillator with RK4. Fun stuff! Press play and click around to see how close to uniform circular motion you can get! tychos.org/en/scenarios/90XZ… #ITeachPhysics

When you hold your breathe waiting for the robot to complete the algorithm unsure if it’ll work but of course it does because you are a rockstar coder!! @codeorg @HowellTwpTauntn

@rjallain Used your article on @WIRED to build this double pendulum in tychos.org. Thanks!
