Flexibility: This applet allows students to create a structure from cubes. Whenever a side of a cube is clicked on, a new cube appends itself to that side. Students can rotate the cube structure to view its various sides. Blocks can be destroyed, the colour changed. There are also options to make the cubes larger and smaller, stretch them, push and pull them, rotate them, and flatten them. Students can zoom using the scroll wheel on a mouse or pinch and zoom with touch motions. A bright point is that the website remembers the structure you were last working on, allowing you to refresh the page without consequence.
