Cabri-Geometre: Does Dynamic Geometry Software (DGS) Change Geometry and Its Teaching and Learning?
Straesser, Rudolf
International Journal of Computers for Mathematical Learning, v6 n3 p319-33 2001
Discusses geometry and Dynamical Geometry Software (DGS). Analyses the way DGS-use influences traditional geometry. Highlights changes in the interactions between geometry, computers, and DGS and human users, focusing on changes in the teaching and learning of geometry. Concludes that DGS deeply changes geometry if it is taken as a human activity integrating the use of instruments like DGS. (Author/MM)
