Sliding Friction by MarkSharks

MarkSharks demo apps can be used by science students across various schools boards and classes – CBSE, ICSE, State Board, etc. Anyone looking for a better way to learn science!

The Sliding Friction app introduces the user to the concept of friction by playing a game. So you don’t just read or watch a video about friction, you actually get to experience it on your mobile device!

If you enjoy using this, try and use the Class 8 Science | MarkSharks app, which is mapped to the entire CBSE class 8 science curriculum.

Research shows that “learning-by-doing” is the best way to learn science. In learning by doing, students construct knowledge by experiencing and exploring their environment. MarkSharks is a revolutionary app that teaches science through virtual experiments, simulations, 3-D models and interactive exercises. We have harnessed the power of mobile devices to enable true “learning by doing” – we deconstruct the textbook curriculum and transform it into fun, engaging science projects!

When children truly understand concepts and principles, they don’t need to spend hours memorizing facts and formulas. This understanding of concepts also makes HOTS (Higher Order Thinking Skills) questions easy to solve. And because they are learning on their own device, they can learn at a pace that suits them. As a result, not only is learning on MarkSharks fun and engaging, it is highly effective too, allowing our users to earn better marks through better learning.
Do you want to top your CBSE science exams? Are you bored of your ICSE science book? Doesn’t matter whether you belong to a CBSE, ICSE or a State Board school, just use our apps and start learning in a 21st century way – when you learn-by-doing, you learn-for-life!
What MarkShark is NOT:
- This is NOT a collection of CBSE/ ICSE/ State Board question papers or solved sample papers. Merely taking tests is NOT enough. We believe that conceptual clarity is key!
- This is NOT just a pdf of CBSE/ ICSE/ State Board science textbook or NCERT science book: Books are boring and NOT effective for all types of learners. Learning should be fun, immersive, interactive and self-paced!

Over the next few months we will continue to add new features and subjects to MarkSharks so that students not only can learn on their own, at their own pace and in their own time, but can also share their learnings with friends via our “social learning” environment and access to tutors online to help clear problems. Parents will get online access to track their child’s performance on MarkSharks and compare it with other students who are studying on the system.
