Can you Deal with Being Disoriented?

How do you "point and click" when the mouse does not behave in the usual fashion? Do you adapt more quickly to having the left-right or up-down directions reversed? Try a simulation called Reverse the Field to see what it’s like. (I was better at left-right, myself). Explore Science has more simulations geared towards 9-12th graders (or curious adults). Here’s another… Black Hole. Try getting ore buckets from your ore cannon to the stations that are surrounded by black holes. Good luck on that one! Sometimes "simulations" are worth a thousand words..
