Richardson, Sue Ellen; Koyunkaya, Melike Yigit – Australian Primary Mathematics Classroom, 2017
We have used "GeoGebra," a dynamic geometry software environment, to explore how Year 4 students understand definitions of angles. Seven students defined angle and then completed several activities adapted for the dynamic environment. Afterward, students again shared their definitions of angles. We found that even a short investigation…
