The following sections summarise the technologies and the people involved.

Cinderella is an interactive geometry program written in Java. There will be points or lines that you can move using the mouse. When you first access one of these pages there will be a delay while the necessary files are downloaded. Depending on the speed of your access to the internet this could take as long as 45 seconds to a minute, maybe longer.
For these pages to function correctly, you need a java-ready browser. According to the creators of Cinderella (web site: Cinderella), these browsers will work: Netscape Navigator/Communicator 4.06, 4.07, 4.08, 4.5 for Windows and Unix (not Macintosh), Netscape Navigator 4.5 with Java 1.1 patch, or Internet Explorer 4, 4.01, 5.
Pages like these can be created by you. Go to Resources for more information about buying Cinderella.

These graphing applets show various types of graphs, that can be altered in some way by clicking on the display or by using sliders provided. Zooming in and out is achieved as follows:

• buttons may be provided
• zoom in by clicking the left mouse button
• zoom in by dragging a out a box with the left mouse button
• zoom out by shift-clicking the left mouse button
• drag the display by clicking and dragging with the right mouse button

They are from a collection of applets written by Professor David J. Eck (Department of Mathematics and Computer Science, Hobart and William Smith Colleges, Geneva, New York 14456). Website: http://math.hws.edu/eck/. They should download fairly quickly.

The Plane Graphic Calculator is a software tool that interactively displays a graphical view of mathematical functions. Website: Plane Graphic Calculator.

WebEQ, published by www.mathtype.com, is a java applet which produces interactive mathematical equations. When you first access one of these pages there will be a delay while the necessary files are downloaded. Depending on the speed of your access to the internet this could take as long as 45 seconds to a minute, maybe longer. You can download a demo version from their web site.

Click on this button to download the WebEQ Math Viewer which should speed up the downloading of WebEQ pages.

These AS/A2 pages have also made extensive use of MathType itself to create accurate mathematical notation. Go to Resources for more information about buying MathType.

These pages are created by MathsNet and use JavaScript to produce interactive forms.

The purpose of Hot Potatoes software is to enable you to create interactive Web-based teaching exercises which can be delivered to any Internet-connected computer equipped with a browser (version 5 or above). The exercises use HTML and JavaScript to implement their interactivity. The program will create the Web pages for you, and you can then upload them to your server. Available free for non-commercial use from Half-Baked Software and the University of Victoria Humanities Computing and Media Centre, 1998-2001.

HotEqn is a Java applet to view and display mathematical equations on the Web. The applet uses the familiar LaTeX notation to code its equations. Fontsizes are variable, so the applet can be used to display inline equations as well. From HotEqn at the Virtual Control Lab.

Cabri Geometre is an interactive geometry program, which has a Java version, called CabriJava, available from Cabri. Cabri Geometre is available for Windows, Dos or Mac.

These pages use various Java applets, usually freely available on websites around the world.

Flash is an multimedia program published by Macromedia that creates interactive graphics. Your browser will need to have the Flash plugin installed - freely available from Macromedia. Much of the module D1 uses Flash.
