For teachers Computer science fundamentals, middle school through introductory college courses
Draw walls, pour water, and watch BFS and A* race to find the shortest path. Then try it yourself.
In class: Students find a path by hand first, then watch BFS and A* do it and compare how many cells each explores.
Students need no account and nothing to install, so it works on Chromebooks and as a sub plan.
