Abstract
We present a general review on using computer visualization technology to assist teaching electrodynamics for undergraduates in several Chinese universities. Based on our own teaching activities during the past decade in National University of Defense and Technology, China, we propose and discuss the necessity of computer visualization in electrodynamics course teaching for undergraduates major in optics for the first time. Then we will show how to help students to comprehend fundamental concepts and to understand the effect of parameters on core physical quantities through some teaching designs. At last, specified content inside the course that are suitable to be assisted by computer visualization are demonstrated.
