Abstract	The Wiggers diagram showing simultaneous events of the cardiac cycle in composite graphs is one of the most intimidating figures students encounter in their study of physiology. This paper describes a discovery learning activity that walks students through the construction of the Wiggers diagram by focusing on the core concepts of blood flow down pressure gradients and the structure-function relationship of heart valves and one-way blood flow through the heart. Additional tasks require students to transfer their understanding to previously unstudied scenarios and figures, such as the left ventricular pressure-volume loop. (As Provided).
