Constructive Struggle in Geometry Classrooms
Wares, Arsalan; Elstak, Iwan
International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, v50 n5 p800-805 2019
The purpose of these notes is to provide examples of large-scale geometry problems that have the potential to promote "constructive struggling" in high-school geometry classrooms. These problems are suitable for being explored in a dynamic geometry environment. The notes also contain brief sketches of solutions to the two problems.
