GeoGebra is free software, available for every computer and tablet platform.

In this one-day workshop, I will introduce some advanced features which make it a powerful tool for teachers to create activities for any part of secondary school math. This includes:

• • use of additional panes for a spreadsheet, computer algebra, or more graphics.

  • interface features such as sliders, hide-show buttons, and animation.

  • creative use of lists to create figures that involve repetition, and figures that have multiple versions

Prior experience with GeoGebra is required. That condition can be met by taking the Transformational Geometry workshop.

Additional work with GeoGebra is included in the No Limits workshop. Taking all three workshops would help get a sense of how to integrate GeoGebra with curriculum in grades 8-11.

I am happy to offer a workshop on interactive geometry to your school or district. Contact me.
