The home confinement that was imposed to reduce and control the spread of COVID-19 pandemic led educational systems to implement changes in many school activities. Teachers moved to remote teaching and relied on digital apps to present and discuss learning activities with their students. Likewise, they looked for new routes and means to follow up…

This study documents problem solving approaches that high school students develop as a result of using systematically Cabri-Geometry software. Results show that the use of the software becomes an important tool for students to construct dynamic representations of the problems that were used to identify and examine different mathematical relations.…

There are diverse ways to construct instructional activities that teachers can use to foster their students' development of mathematical thinking. It is argued that the use of computational tools offers teachers the possibility of designing and exploring mathematical tasks from distinct perspectives that might lead their students to the…

Different computational tools may offer teachers and students distinct opportunities in representing, exploring and solving mathematical tasks. In this context, we illustrate that the use of dynamic software (Cabri Geometry) helped high school teachers to think of and represent a particular task dynamically. In this process, the teachers had the…

Shows the potential of using interactive geometry software to produce a natural environment for formulating and pursuing questions that arise in the course of solving problems. (KHR)
