Okay...I see now, it is working well on Read the Clock. One small problem: The hour hand is not being set very accurately with Read the Clock...I got a problem of 10:50 and the hour hand was pointing right at the 10. It should be very close to pointing at the 11. So I got the answer wrong :(
This is awesome! I love the digital output for the analog clock state. It would make a great training tool. I'm having a bit of trouble with the Read the Clock button though...do I enter the time in the Ask field first? Can't I just read the time off the digital field? Really nice training game!
Thank you! When you click on Read the Clock, the digital clock should disappear and the hands should go to a random position. That is what you read and type. Perhaps I should make clearer instructions. Thanks for the feedback!

Project Notes
This is a clock simulation and quiz in one. Click Explore to move the hands around. The "digital clock" will tell you what time it is. The other to buttons are quizes. In Read-The-Clock, the clock goes to a random position. You read the clock and enter your answer in the ask block. In Set-The-Clock, you set the clock to the time it tells you. Press the button again to get another question. This could be used by young children to learn about telling time and to quiz themselves. Have fun!

(view all replies)Great learning tool. I wish I had this when I was younger. I used to go peering into clocks like a zombie. Thanks...Ahaan.
