Outline
Construct Dynamic Geometry Together
The following activities present a special approach to dynamic geometry, which may be quite different from other approaches to learning geometry. They focus specifically on the core idea of dynamic geometry: how to design the construction of figures with dependencies. They can help you understand geometry better, whether you already studied geometry, are studying it now or will study it in school later. Chatting about the activities in a small group will help you to think about geometry and problem solving on your own in the future.
This GeoGebraBook includes 50 GeoGebra activities, grouped in 13 chapters. Chapters 1 and 13 are for you to work on by yourself. The other chapters are for you to work on with a team of two or three friends. Chapters 2 to 7 provide an introduction to dynamic geometry and should be done by your team in order. The other chapters (8 to 12) are optional, depending on the interests of your team.
