This study presents a background for fractals and describes an interactive
computer graphics workshop for two-dimensional fractals. The workshop enables
the user to learn about fractals through experimentation with the generation of
Koch-like fractal curves. A variety of Koch-like fractal curves, Julia sets and the
Mandelbrot set are presented as examples. Algorithms are presented for creating
the Mandelbrot set and for creating Koch-like fractal curves.
