    Dear Linda,

    Have you tried the "Cat-traption" on the Energy site
    (http://www.learner.org/workshops/energy/cattraption/)? It's
    an animated version of the Rube Goldberg-like contraption used in
    demonstrations on the videos. There's also a Web highlight about it,
    with a challenge, at
    http://www.learner.org/workshops/energy/workshop3/icon1.html .

    I'd love to know if that's useful to you, especially since you find
    the Rube Goldberg contraptions helpful to your teaching already.
