The superb interactive toolkit allows teachers to access tools for demonstrating accurate geometric construction, isometric drawing and graph plotting from any point within the lessons suite and appears in a separate browser. Whilst capable of producing diagrams with great precision, this is a dedicated teaching tool.
All of the virtual components emulate their real-life counterparts as closely as possible - the compasses extend along the ruler, just as pupils would expect. Arcs are drawn by clicking on the pencil and rotating the compasses. Lines are ruled to the correct length by moving the pencil along the ruler.
All of the tools work to the same scale. The virtual protractor can be rotated and manoeuvred to measure angles using the inner or outer scales and the zoom facility allows the scales to be read easily from the back of the classroom. The adjustable set square can be used to show how the gradient of a straight-line graph is measured.
Diagrams can be annotated, points can be labelled, the labels and scale on axes can be changed, as can the colour and type of grid for plotting graphs. |
