In science and biology, Moiki EDU turns abstract concepts into concrete adventures. The catalogue holds around 8 published stories in this subject, some of them among the most-read on the whole platform. Biology, chemistry, climate science: science teachers use the interactive format to bring the mechanisms of life and matter to life from the inside.
With 24,970 views, Ramón le Carbone is by far the most-read story in the Moiki EDU catalogue. Created by Mélanie Fenaert (melafena), a biology teacher and member of the S'cape team, this story invites students to play a carbon atom travelling through the Earth's reservoirs: atmosphere, oceans, biosphere, lithosphere.
At each step, students discover the mechanisms of the carbon cycle by making choices that determine what comes next. What makes this story so effective is identification: students are not reading a lesson about the carbon cycle, they are the carbon. The abstract concept becomes a concrete, memorable adventure.
This story has been listed by the Versailles DANE and by S'cape as an example of innovative teaching practice.
Created by bioteach (181 views), this story applies the same principle of identification to biochemistry. Students follow a glucose molecule through the body, from ingestion to use by the cells. Glycolysis, the Krebs cycle, cellular respiration: concepts that are often hard to grasp come alive when you live them from the inside.
With 60 views, this story approaches climate science from an original narrative angle. Students explore climate mechanisms through choices that illustrate the interactions between atmosphere, hydrosphere and biosphere. An effective medium for working on the stakes of climate change with scientific rigour and narrative commitment.
This story (253 views) approaches reproductive biology with an accessible, relaxed tone. The interactive format lets students explore the stages of the menstrual cycle and of human reproduction at their own pace, going back over anything they misunderstood thanks to the remediation branches.
With 133 views, this story plunges students into a world where crystals are at the heart of the plot. Geology, mineral chemistry and crystallography are approached through a narrative of scientific exploration.
This story retraces the historical discovery of the link between diet and disease, through Professor Eijkman's experiments on beriberi. Students follow the researcher's scientific reasoning, form hypotheses and test protocols — an ideal setting for working on the experimental method.
Science often suffers from an engagement deficit among students: lesson diagrams and written protocols struggle to convey the living, dynamic character of natural phenomena. The interactive story changes that by placing students at the heart of the scientific process.
The success of "Ramón le Carbone" proves it: when students play the phenomenon they are studying through an interactive reading path, understanding runs deeper and lasts longer. Moiki EDU lets science teachers build those experiences with no programming skills at all.
