The first requires them to set the acceleration and acceleration sign to guide a car around a race track. This is very difficult uncles students are very clear on the meaning of positive and negative acceleration. The second requires them to set the acceleration and direction of a space ship to hit space objects. This is difficult since once the ship gains velocity it must be turned around and accelerated in the opposite direction to slow down.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/darngoodsolutions.com\/blogA\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/racecar.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-7244\" src=\"http:\/\/darngoodsolutions.com\/blogA\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/racecar-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"http:\/\/darngoodsolutions.com\/blogA\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/racecar-300x225.jpg 300w, http:\/\/darngoodsolutions.com\/blogA\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/racecar-768x575.jpg 768w, http:\/\/darngoodsolutions.com\/blogA\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/racecar.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/darngoodsolutions.com\/blogA\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/space.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-7245 alignright\" src=\"http:\/\/darngoodsolutions.com\/blogA\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/space-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"http:\/\/darngoodsolutions.com\/blogA\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/space-300x225.jpg 300w, http:\/\/darngoodsolutions.com\/blogA\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/space-768x576.jpg 768w, http:\/\/darngoodsolutions.com\/blogA\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/space.jpg 798w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The game keeps score as students take 10 trys at two different race car and two different space missions.
