For this exploration, we will investigate the capacity of 'Frontier' AI models to support an expansion of the opportunities for representation. Google's Gemini and Anthropic's Claude are two powerful tools for generating interactive applications. I prompted both models with this:

Help me develop an online interactive tutorial for 9th graders on the topic of density.

You can view the result from Gemini and Claude.

Create your own Web application on the topic of your choosing with Claude, Gemini, or any other AI tool. Claude will call this an artifact and generate it automatically. Gemini requires the use of the Canvas function to develop an app. You should see the Canvas button below the prompt field. Both also have the option* to share the application via a share or publish button. As best as I can tell, neither model will require a subscription beyond the free plan.

*Caution:
It appears as though the UNLV Gemini account does not have the option to share the applications. If you use any other Google account, the sharing option is available.
Submission: Share a link to your application if your account permits. If you are unable to share a link, you can post a screenshot.

Take your time refining your application to get it the way you would like. However, you might find that if you are on a free plan, you will run into some usage limits. Don't fret, your limits will reset the following day. Hitting your usage limit is an acceptable reason for a late submission.
