 * '''Abstract''': Three of the main challenges in modern science education revolve around improving student motivation, engaging students via hands-on activities, and blending IT, conceptual learning and pedagogical techniques into the modern curriculum. SOCR provides web-based open-access to a suite of data, visualization, statistical, analytical, modeling tools (Java-Applets and HTML5-webapps), as well as learning materials and instructional resources. All SOCR resources (http://SOCR.umich.edu) are open-source, collaboratively developed, multilingual and embrace trans-disciplinary interactions via Cloud services. In this interactive hands-on presentation we will showcase examples of probability calculators, statistics analysis tools, data modeling, visualization, virtual games, simulations and experiments. Attendees are encouraged to bring their laptops (modern Java/JavaScript-enabled browsers and Internet connection are required) to explore and try out different tools during the presentation.
