Güven, Bülent; Kosa, Temel – Turkish Online Journal of Educational Technology - TOJET, 2008
Geometry is the study of shape and space. Without spatial ability, students cannot fully appreciate the natural world. Spatial ability is also very important for work in various fields such as computer graphics, engineering, architecture, and cartography. A number of studies have demonstrated that technology has an important potential to develop…
