Shockwave activities illustrating real-time correlations
between equations and graphs, designed to help students
visualize and experiment with concepts from elementary
algebra through pre-calculus. Graphs of functions, systems,
and complex numbers are included.
In addition to slide-bars for varying parameters and values
of variables, most activities allow zooming and panning in
the plane, data exportation, screen snapshots, and tooltip
help. The site also allows members to create and view Web
pages for mathematics courses.
