Some students enjoy using technology in the classroom - my students are on First
In Math all of the time.  They like doing math in a "game" way.  These applets,
with the proper introduction are great ways to reinforce lessons.  Struggling
students may need the animation to first build a connection - a great way to
hook them to the concept.  Everything isn't for everybody, so I keep that in
mind, along with learning modalities, when I'm teaching  to the whole class.
