Abstract

In teaching the physics of wave phenomena, it is frequently helpful to be able to interact with various representations of waves rather than showing static images to students. Through the online graphing calculator platform, Desmos.com, students can interact with animated graphics of different wave behaviors, including traveling waves, standing waves, wave interference, beats, and the Doppler effect. The platform also includes tools for instructors to design interactive activities for students to complete individually as homework or as part of a classroom activity. Instructors can share graphs, interactive simulations, and class activities with other instructors for reuse and modification in other classes. This online tool is an efficient way to bring more interactivity into the classroom for exploring wave behavior.
