This article is an excerpt from a master's thesis developed in Brazil, in which we approach recurrent and linear sequences, given some intriguing particularities in their definitions and the scarcity of discussion of this topic in the literature of the History of Mathematics, especially with regard to its geometric representation. Thus, we aim to…

Digital technologies for mathematics education are continuously developing. Still, much remains unknown about how students use these tools and how this affects learning. For example, tablets nowadays come with multi-touch options that allow for a more embodied approach to geometry education, compared to mouse interactions. However, little is known…

This study investigates whether Vietnamese students face specific challenges when visualizing skew versus intersecting lines and whether using the anaglyph feature of GeoGebra can help overcome these difficulties. Employing a design-based research approach over four phases with 12th-grade students, the study involved tasks in traditional…

The present paper describes a dynamic investigation of polygons obtained by reflecting an arbitrary point located inside or outside a given polygon through the midpoints of its sides. The activity was based on hypothesizing on the shape of the reflection polygon that would be obtained, testing the hypotheses using dynamic software, and finding a…

Constructing mathematical proofs is a fundamental yet challenging skill in secondary school geometry. While technology has been used to scaffold different aspects of the proving process, existing approaches often separate inquiry and conjecturing from formal proof or focus on structural and technical assistance without addressing students' initial…

This paper aims to clarify how the use of the GeoGebra dynamic geometry program helps students understand the relationships between different representations of a linear function and develop the ability to plot a linear function. The study was based on a quasi-experimental design. In control classes, the topic of functions was presented without…

Finding teaching methods that foster students' development of geometric thinking and visualization skills is still a current challenge. This study analyses the effects of the combined use of paper folding and dynamic geometry on high school students' geometric thinking and visualization skills. A quasi-experimental study pretest/post-test design…

Learn how to engage students in geometry concepts through a real-world task that leverages GeoGebra to provide students with generalization and authorship opportunities. This article shares the story of a geometry task that asked students to choose a city that would best work for their new trucking company. Throughout the task, students noticed…

This study investigates the embodied, symbolic, and formal reasoning of two fourth-year university students while exploring geometric reasoning about the Cauchy-Riemann equations with the aid of "Geometer's Sketchpad (GSP)." These students participated in a teaching activity designed to encourage shifts between embodied, symbolic, and…

The purpose of this note is to introduce two challenging problems in geometry that were inspired by some well-known problems in high school geometry. These problems can be explored in the dynamic geometry environments of computer construction programmes.

We developed an Authentic GeometryGo (AGG) app to help students application of geometry in authentic contexts through authentic measurements and peer assessments. The study included an experimental group (EG) using an AGG app and a control group (CG) using paper-based methods. The results showed that the EG outperformed the CG in terms of…

This study aimed to reveal the effect of teaching the 4th grade circumference measurement subject with the dynamic geometry software "GeoGebra" on achievement and motivation. In the research, the pre-test -- post-test control group design, which is one of the quasi-test designs, was used. In the Mathematics lessons conducted with the…

In this article, we examine spatial inscriptions marked in real or rendered spaces, rather than on two-dimensional surfaces, conceptualize spatial inscriptions from an inclusive materialist perspective and consider realizations of spatial inscriptions that are possible with emerging technologies (e.g. 3D pens, immersive virtual reality). We then…

Learning geometry with conceptual understanding requires the implementation of appropriate methods that actively engage students and support them in becoming autonomous, critical thinkers, and self-directed learners. The purpose of the study was to investigate the effect of GeoGebra-supported learning on grade ten students' conceptual…

In this paper we introduce the reader to a foundational topic of differential geometry: the curvature of a curve. To make this topic engaging to a wide audience of readers, we develop this intuitive introduction employing only basic geometry without calculus and derivatives. It is hoped that this introduction will encourage many more to both…
