Explorable Explanations is a directory and manifesto for learning by interacting with an idea. Its collection ranges across mathematics, society, computing and science, linking to projects where changing a system is part of understanding it.
Browsing the collection
Begin with the random recommendations or move through the longer collection. Entries link away to independent projects, so each explorable has its own controls, accessibility and level of explanation.
What makes an explorable work
The strongest examples connect a visible outcome to a control the reader can understand. They are useful references for educators and designers deciding when interaction clarifies a concept and when it merely adds movement.
An older web directory
This is a long-running, community-shaped collection rather than a continuously audited catalogue. Some destinations have moved, changed ownership or disappeared, but the surviving work remains unusually rich.
Things to know
- Some linked projects are old, moved or unavailable.
- Quality and accessibility vary between destinations.
- The directory does not provide a structured course sequence.
