Applet Collections

Title Description
Interactive Mathematics A collection of interactive applets that range from different topics that include general ideas and more niche examples of math in real life.
PhET Interactive Simulations A collection of interactive applets that are very visually engaging. The website specializes in sciences, but has a decent amount of math/statistics applets.
GeoGebra Pretty much anything you might need that deals with some kind of virtual tool can be found on GeoGebra, including applets for geometry, trigonometry, algebra, statistics
Stapplets A collection of applets and activities that are related to statistics
Secondary interactive games and challenges A collection of math games that actually teach mathematical principles, unlike popular math game websites


Specific Applets

Title Description
Polygraph: Parabolas An applet game where students play a “Guess Who?” style game to learn about qualities of functions and graphs
Marble Slides An applet where students create graphs of functions to create slides to collect stars from a falling marbles
Area of a circle An applet where the students can interact with virtual manipulatives and discover why pi*r^2 is the area of a cirlce
Confidence Interval An applet where students can set different values for proportions and confidence intervals to see visually how it affects the data
Riemann Sum Interactive An applet where students can manipulate riemann sums in multiple ways to see how that changes the estimate of the area.
