Advantages of Intelligent Multimedia Application

The aim of subjects dealing with graph theory and combinatorial optimization is above all to develop and deepen students’ capacity for logical and algorithmic thinking. It should also support the ability to form images in mind. Students should be able to describe various situations with the aid of graphs, solve the given problem expressed by the graph, and translate the solution back into the initial situation. As a lot of our students are visual learners it is useful to complete teaching and learning using various multimedia applications. One of the programs enabling visual representation of basic graph-concepts and graph-algorithms is introduced in the paper, as well as relevant educational principles, which have been applied in the course of many years. The paper can serve to the teachers and instructors as an inspirational material when dealing with graph theory and combinatorial optimization.
