Enhancing Mathematical Graphical Displays in Excel through Animation

Deane Arganbright, Department of Mathematics Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology

Enhancing Mathematical Graphical Displays in Excel through AnimationThe use of spreadsheets in teaching mathematics has increased significantly in recent years. One can implement mathematical algorithms, models, visualizations, and applications naturally and effectively through interactive spreadsheet constructions and creative graphical displays. This paper demonstrates techniques that enable educators to design animated graphical displays in their spreadsheet constructions in order to produce powerful classroom demonstrations to enhance mathematical understanding, while also presenting students with new ideas for incorporating attractive visual components in their mathematical assignments and projects.
