I am doing a math presentation for a group of math teachers. Instead of doing the typical boring introduction of having teachers state their name, school corporation, and years of experience; I would like to make it more interactive.
I want to have the state of Indiana displayed. The participants can then take points on the image and drag them to their hometown. I know how to post an image on Desmos activities and make changes to not display the graph. But how do you make points draggable for each participant? How do you make it to display for everybody?
If you have a slide show with an example, I would like to see it!!!
Hi Joe! All participants sharing draggable points can be done using the aggregate function. Here’s an example activity with Texas (my home state), where the participants drag the point on the first map, then see all of the aggregated points on the second map.
You can test this out by creating a session code, and then opening the activity in multiple private browsers (or on several different computers).
Hope this helps!
I was happy to see you use a second Screen for the aggregated responses. You can show them on the original screen, but that can get laggy. You’ll also have a duplicate of your own behind the draggable point.
