GeoGebra is a dynamic software that is frequently used and of increasing importance in mathematics teaching processes in our digital age. Accordingly, in this study a new perspective has been brought to the proofs of the "two square difference identity" expressed for the square, which is a flat polygon, made with different approaches.…

The complexity of the art of teaching and learning, especially in the field of mathematics, calls for a broader approach than the traditional status quote. Proof without words in geometry coupled with the dynamic and interactive GeoGebra applet have the capacity to be used in all levels of mathematics education from grade schools to higher…

Randomness and distribution are important concepts underpinning the ability to think and reason probabilistically. Traditional approaches to teaching the Poisson distribution focus on mathematical definitions and formulae which obscure the randomness intrinsic in this process. Advances in technology have made it possible for students learning…

In this study, it was aimed to determine the views of graduate students on mathematics learning with dynamic mathematics software GeoGebra. Case study method was used in qualitative research patterns. The study group consists of 7 graduate students who were doing their degrees at the Education Faculty of a state university in Turkey. Data were…

The first data structure that first-year undergraduate students learn during the programming and algorithms courses is the one-dimensional array. For novice programmers, it might be hard to understand different algorithms on arrays (e.g. searching, mirroring, sorting algorithms), because the algorithms dynamically change the values of elements. In…

Despite few limitations, GeoGebra as a dynamic geometry software stood as a powerful instrument in helping university math majors understand, explore, and gain experiences in visualizing the limits of functions and the ?-d formalism. During the process of visualizing a theorem, the order mattered in the sequence of constituents. Students made use…

Proving in school geometry is not just about validating the truth of a claim. In the school setting, the main function of the proof is to convince someone that a claim is true by providing an explanation. Students consider proving to be difficult; in fact, they find the very concept of proof demanding. Proving a claim in planar geometry involves…

In the summer of 2009, a professional development partnership was established between the Peoria Public School District (PPSD), a local education agency (LEA), and Illinois State University (ISU) to improve geometric and trigonometric knowledge and skill for high school mathematics teachers as part of the Illinois Mathematics and Science…

The IADIS CELDA 2012 Conference intention was to address the main issues concerned with evolving learning processes and supporting pedagogies and applications in the digital age. There had been advances in both cognitive psychology and computing that have affected the educational arena. The convergence of these two disciplines is increasing at a…
