The Gizmo I chose was “Finding Patterns.” What I liked about the Gizmo was how it made learning easy and even fun. I could click on the squares and it would fill in with blocks. I could then readjust them so they would fit in with the answers. It uses a lot of illustrations explaining concepts for questions. They even have videos where I could interact and see how my answers would result. It is just like playing learning games on my computer.

I would definitely use this in all my classes. Especially when I take math or science classes I can use Gizmo to get a clearer concept of the problem that would have otherwise required a lot of difficult explanations from tutors. I only wish I had this when I was growing up.
