Classical geometry with GeoGebra

Publication at Faculty of Mathematics and Physics |

Abstract

This contribution addresses the application of dynamic system GeoGebra in teaching and learning geometry. Our aim is to increase the interest of students in studying classical geometry at secondary schools and colleges.

One possible approach of improvement in studying geometry is the integration of computer software in the teaching process. This way seems to be interesting, attractive and motivational for students.

Indeed the usage of computers in education is very modern. We will use GeoGebra for visualization, for the proving geometric problems in the plane or for the demonstration practical uses of geometry.

The usage of software will be shown on some concrete examples. We will demonstrate the advantages of dynamic geometry system on examples from the field of kinematic geometry.

We will compare GeoGebra with other systems for geometric modeling with respect to accessible functions. We will mention how to use geometric systems for image creation or illustrations of geometric problems.

The outputs can be used in publications and also for home schooling and e-learning.
