Kaneko, Masataka; Yamashita, Satoshi; Kitahara, Kiyoshi; Maeda, Yoshifumi; Nakamura, Yasuyuki; Kortenkamp, Ulrich; Takato, Setsuo – International Journal for Technology in Mathematics Education, 2015
Dynamic Geometry Software (DGS) is a powerful tool which enables students to move geometric objects interactively. Through experimental simulations with DGS, mathematical facts and background mechanisms are accessible to students. However, especially when those facts and mechanisms are complicated, it is not so easy for some students to record and…

Using Computer-Assisted Multiple Representations in Learning Geometry Proofs
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Wong, Wing-Kwong; Yin, Sheng-Kai; Yang, Hsi-Hsun; Cheng, Ying-Hao – Educational Technology & Society, 2011
Geometry theorem proving involves skills that are difficult to learn. Instead of working with abstract and complicated representations, students might start with concrete, graphical representations. A proof tree is a graphical representation of a formal proof, with each node representing a proposition or given conditions. A computer-assisted…
