Giving weight to pages containing js apps

Hi,

I have started an educational website that contains several articles and I have now started adding javascript tools (learning resources) on their own pages. Each page (tool) has a short text description underneath describing what the tool does (similar example would be game pages holding a single flash game).

All my articles are indexed, but I'm finding it difficult to give these app pages much weight - in fact most haven't even been indexed.

How would I best provide weight to these pages without ruining holding page design?

Have they been crawled? (This is the SEO equivalent of a technician asking if the device is plugged in. It's a stupid, irrelevant and annoying question ... except for those times when the answer turns out to be No.)

@Karma I have had similar difficulty as you.

There was some discussion about this on the most recent Google webmaster hang-out [plus.google.com...] .It is at the 25 minutes mark.

In my case, I have a form that is to be filled out by the user, then submitted and the page is redirected to a results page. To get the form and the purpose of the tool understood by Google and then indexed, I added an example page, where I explained the form and the results and then linked to a few results pages. Since I did, Google has indexed the example page, the form page and the linked results pages. Before I did that it was impossible to get Google to index any of it.
