I find the activity interesting as well as stimulating to students' learning and
understanding about the relationship between distance, speed and time. This
activity motivates students to learn more and explore more because it triggers
their inquisitive mind. They have various simulated versions of parallels,
perpendiculars, intersecting lines, changes in the parameters as oppose to the
boring drawings and sketches that they see from the textbook.  This is a great
reinforcement after teaching the concepts of slopes and parameter changes.  This
must be introduced to the students after the concept had been taught and after
they have manually graphed the problems on their own graph paper.
