Interactive Theorem Finding through Continuous Variation of Geometric Configurations.
Schumann, Heinz
Journal of Computers in Mathematics and Science Teaching, v10 n3 p81-105 Spr 1991
Described and evaluated are microcomputers as a tool for construction in geometry education and heuristic theorem finding through interactive continuous variation of geometric configurations. Numerous examples of theorem finding processes are provided using the prototype graphics system CABRI-Geometer. (MDH)
