Students, I know you would probably rather be
spending free time in the lab playing pinball or visiting the Coffee Break
Arcade website, but I care too much about you to let even one opportunity for
learning pass.
Therefore, I've discovered a few websites that
I think would be entertaining, AND educational. Some are games, some are
puzzles, but all are worthwhile sites to visit should you have a little spare
time in the lab. And remember, if it's okay with your parents, you can
always play pinball or visit Coffee Break at home. Or, perhaps you'll even
find something you like here and visit the site at home.
