Trig Wizard Lite app for iPhone and iPad

Trig Wizard I: Trigonometry for Visual Learners (ie. Most of us)

Trig Wizard provides an interactive, visual environment for teachers and learners for learning and investigating by interacting with a unit circle widget to:

⚫ Understand the fundamentals of trigonometry - Trig functions and their inverses, based on projection from/to unit circle
⚫ See the evolution of right-angled triangle trigonometry (SOH, CAH, TOA) from the unit circle
⚫ See trig identities as outcomes of unit circle symmetries
⚫ Solve trig equations visually


For teachers

⚫ Easy use of interactive unit circle widget in class to demonstrate fundamentals of trigonometry to visual learners, which is most of them
⚫ An environment to visually demonstrate solutions to trig equations
⚫ For students – a self-paced learning environment for trigonometry


Philosophy

Trig Wizard was designed and tested by teachers, for teachers and learners and was professionally developed, with:

⚫ Progressive in-class testing with multiple iPads

Feedback from Teachers

“I will never again teach trigonometry without this tool”

“The visual environment allows any student to see relationships, minimizing the need to recall facts”


Feedback from Students

“I could always do trig and thought I understood it, but within a few minutes of playing with the widget – I really did understand it”
