The Tracks simulator supports students in observing and making sense of the similarities and differences in alpha, beta, and gamma radiation and enables story-telling about the effects of radiation at different size scales. It also promotes understanding of the vast number of ionizations caused by a single alpha or beta and helps students realize that alphas interact much more strongly with matter than betas do.
