Interactive textbook

Today I showed my computer graphics class some examples I’ve made of interactive diagrams. These are notes for a textbook that will be meant to be read on-line.

The basic idea is that every diagram in the book tells a little story. When you move your mouse over any diagram, it does something in response that aims to advance your understanding of whatever concept is being discussed.

You can check it out for yourself here.

For homework I asked the class to make their own interactive diagrams, and I gave them my software library to work with. I look forward to seeing what they come up with!
