Open Source Physics
Open Source Physics - (OSP)
The OSP is a project that provides curriculum resources that engage students in physics, computation, and computer modeling and is supported in part by the National Science Foundation. You can pick from many compiled Java based simulations for Astronomy, Mathematical Tools, Classical Mechanics, Electricity & Magnetism, General Physics and many more.
The OSP project has a wide variety of packages, libraries, programs, and files that have been put into Java archive (jar) packages with curricular materials for the study of computational physics. You can also find help in using the Easy Java Simulations (EJS) tool to create or modify physics simulations without the need for learning java programming.
An example of the EJS tool:

Open Technology Blog
This is the Open Technology Blog
This is the first post in the Open Tech Blog that will be part of the Poling.org domain at some point.
I will start to post to this blog when I get the domain set up to point poling.org to blog.poling.org (opentechblog.blogspot.com).
