Given that the session for the activity lasts 80 minutes, it was not possible to implement a test in order to have an accurate measure of the understanding of the concepts explored during the activity, and given that the exam to test the related competencies was held weeks after, while many other tasks and learning experiences on vectors were done, the best possible measure of the impact of the applet was the comparison in the performance on the activity with sessions in the previous semesters, specifically, it was noticed that students needed less instruction to complete the objectives listed after the demonstration was shown, and since these are the most difficult tasks, the time to complete the worksheet was greatly reduced, allowing more than 70% of the students to complete the task on time, compared to less than 50% of the students who finished the activity in previous semesters.
