Interacting with the Geometry of the Circle
Piggott, Jennifer; Gilderdale, Charlie
Mathematics Teaching Incorporating Micromath, n195 p27-30 Mar 2006
In this article, the authors describe a free interactive circular geoboard environment that can lead learners to pose mathematical questions. They list three major ways in which one can imagine the environment and problems being used by teachers. Among other things, they discuss how the environment could support teaching and learning, and how the environment worked in practice. The article discusses what the authors hoped for when they published the environment and their vision for the future in terms of the creation and use of similar learning contexts. (Contains 8 footnotes and 2 figures.)
