Try it: Change the frequency and wavelength and watch the wave speed.
Diagrams
Live diagrams you can run at the board.
The diagrams in a generated lesson are drawn in code from the lesson's own numbers, not generated as images.
Interactive diagrams
Don't just show the diagram. Run it.
Every diagram in a lesson is drawn in code from that lesson's own numbers, so you can change a value in front of the class and watch what happens. These are the real thing, live. Pick your subject and try them.
Built for a laptop or the classroom board — they work on a phone, just smaller.
Try it: Set the angle and speed, then press Fire.
Try it: Slide a force or a distance and see which way the beam tips.
A few of 310+ diagram types. The generator picks the one that fits the spec point and fills it with the lesson's own values.

Interactive tools, by subject.
A selection of the 310+ diagram types, with what you or the class do with each. They are drawn in code from the lesson's own numbers, and the class can commit to a prediction before the controls unlock.
Physics
Force diagrams
A free-body diagram with a slider for each force. The resultant updates, and the body drifts if the forces are unbalanced.
Circuits
Series and parallel circuits drawn from a component list. Open a switch and see which lamps stay lit.
Wave machine
A moving transverse wave with sliders for frequency, wavelength and amplitude, and a live v = f × λ readout.
Half-life
Step one half-life at a time and plot the count falling. The curve is the average, since real decay is random.
I-V characteristics
Sweep the supply voltage and trace the curve for a resistor, a filament lamp or a diode, with live readings.
Projectile motion (A-Level)
Set the angle, speed and launch height, fire at a target, and compare the predicted range with where it lands.

Chemistry
Balancing equations
Step each coefficient up and down. Atom-count bars update for every element, and a badge appears when it balances.
Collision theory
Particles move in a box. Temperature and concentration sliders and a catalyst toggle change the relative rate.
Reaction profiles
Switch a catalyst pathway on, flip exothermic to endothermic, and move the activation energy.
Le Chatelier's principle
Choose a change to concentration, temperature or pressure and the seesaw tips towards reactants or products.
pH and universal indicator
Drag a pH slider from 0 to 14 and watch the indicator colour and the hydrogen-ion concentration change.
Electrolysis
The class predicts the product at each electrode, then you reveal them with the rules applied.
More on Chemistry.
Biology
Punnett squares
Pick each parent's genotype and the grid and both ratios are redrawn.
Enzyme activity
Slide temperature or pH and a marker traces the rate curve up to the optimum, then down as the enzyme denatures.
Osmosis
A concentration slider runs from hypotonic to hypertonic while the cell swells or shrinks and water arrows show the net movement.
Natural selection
Play or step a population through the generations in one of five scenarios, such as peppered moths or antibiotic resistance.
Allele frequencies (A-Level)
Step through the generations beside the gene pool, for Hardy-Weinberg, selection and genetic drift.
More on Biology.
Maths
Circle theorems
Drag points on the circumference and watch the angles update. The theorem holds under every drag.
Pythagoras' theorem
Drag the corners to resize the legs and watch the three square areas. a² + b² = c² holds exactly each time.
Transformations
Drag the centre of a rotation or an enlargement, or step the scale factor, and watch the image move.
Three-figure bearings
Drag point B and watch the bearing and the back bearing update, both measured clockwise from north.
Match the graph
Move sliders until your dashed line or quadratic sits on the target, with the equation shown as you go.
Vector addition
Drag the arrowheads of a and b. The tip-to-tail construction and the resultant update with exact components.

Across subjects
What changed?
Two states side by side, such as mitosis and meiosis. Reveal the second and the rows that changed are highlighted.
Real-unit graphs
Graphs in real units with sliders, such as force and extension, terminal velocity, rate of reaction and limiting factors.
Line of best fit
Drag the ends of a line to fit a scatter graph by eye, then reveal the least-squares line to compare.
Equation rearranger
Rearrange a three-quantity formula such as F = ma on screen, or pause and let the class choose the next step.
Required-practical apparatus
Labelled rigs for the practicals, such as the ripple tank, the light microscope and electrolysis of aqueous solutions.
More on Working Scientifically, Required practicals.
Some of these animate on their own. If your device asks for reduced motion, the wave machine and the collision box show a still frame with a step button instead. Every course is listed on the courses page.
