Continued development of interactive online tools for undergraduate acoustics education

Key Points

Interactive animations improve student engagement and comprehension in undergraduate acoustics classes.
Development includes tools for room reflections, vowel sounds, and frequency spectra to enhance learning.
Based on observations in three classes, various animations provide educators with valuable teaching resources.
These tools complement traditional methods, indicating a shift towards interactive learning in acoustics education.

Abstract

This presentation will explore the development of online interactive animations as teaching tools for undergraduate acoustics education. The development of a website with a growing collection of interactive animations is intended to provide educators with freely accessible resources that engage students and enhance learning outcomes. Based on observations from three undergraduate classes, several new tools and animations have been developed, including those for room reflections, vowel sounds created by varying filters, spherically propagating particle motion, live-editable frequency spectra, and source–filter combinations. This talk will demonstrate these tools and discuss how they can complement traditional teaching methods to foster increased student engagement and comprehension.
