Finding Conjectures Using Geometer's Sketchpad
Fallstrom, Scott; Walter, Marion
Mathematics Teaching, n221 p19-21 Mar 2011
Conjectures, theorems, and problems in print often appear to come out of nowhere. Scott Fallstrom and Marion Walter describe how their thinking and conjectures evolved; they try to show how collaboration helped expand their ideas. By showing the results from working together, they hope readers will encourage collaboration amongst their students. (Contains 7 figures.)
