Since gravitational properties in the game are more like those on the moon than Earth, teachers might be able to use the app as an introduction to an exercise in the calculation of gravitational pull. Statistics provided on completion pages include number collected of total number needed, time for completion, and number of moves, and could be used to teach division or fractions, or to chart progress and success (the app does not track these from one level to the next). It can hook even reluctant learners as a way to introduce both building and geometry. World of Goo could be used effectively as a segue to formal lessons on building concepts like the cantilever, stability, and wedging, and physics like Newton's Laws on motion, gravity, and equal and opposite actions.
