I built more vital tools using AI.

Since my last post about using AI to build interactive webpages to help teaching, I've experimented with creating even more resources that I wish to detail here for your own use. These were built using Canva Code, by far the best solution for creating these interactive pages, at present.

Networks (Topology) Builder - Game

A game that invites users to connect components together to create different networks. The later levels focus on Network Topologies such as Star, Bus, Ring, etc.). A great visual tool for understanding how networks can be arranged.

Computer Science (OCR) Revision Minesweeper - Game

For the pupils who enjoy playing games, this game features OCR multiple choice questions built into the traditional game of minesweeper. Questions are asked for each square revealed and as a 'save yourself from losing' last chance.

HTML Drag-and-Drop Block-Based Editor - Version 2

(original / alternative)

The same tool (a drag-and-drop editor for HTML) in two different versions. When building this refined version of my earlier Claude widget, I tried two different approaches that led to different user interfaces of the same toolset.

Ciphers (Encryption/Decryption) Visualiser

A helpful webpage for encrypting and decrypting messages to teach pupils about ciphers and network security encryption. The Caesar Cipher is the main focus with other more complex ciphers also available.

Number System Explorer

Calling back to my first test on that Teach First Training Day, this is a more refined converter between different number systems, including binary, hexadecimal, octal, and Base64. This fits well into a lesson / unit on data representation. The Base64 representation can be compared to YouTube url's (video IDs).

Final Comments

I've learnt even more about developing these interactive webpages using Canva Code. Feel free to use and experiment with these tools (or similar) and please share your own experiences with me.

I have now begun looking at how this can be used by other subjects outside of Computing / Computing Science. I've already tried some widgets Science, Mathematics and English that perhaps I will write about sometime soon. Needless to say, there is definitely more experimentation to be done.
