GeoGebra Input Update
Users can now type math when answering open ended questions in Activities and in Classroom.
Check out the update on every open ended question on the GeoGebra website: www.geogebra.org
GeoGebra Suite in Notes
We now not only have Graphing and CAS but a GeoGebra tool which loads the Suite App. In this way users can choose which GeoGebra App they want to use. Another benefit: if you choose Graphing it has the full power without restrictions compared to the standalone Graphing App.
Check out the new tools in the GeoGebra Notes App: https://www.geogebra.org/notes
New Features in Notes: Ruler and Protractor
New to GeoGebra Notes are the Ruler and Protractor tools! Also, when you drag the
pen along the side of the ruler, it creates a straight segment!
Find them in the pen view in GeoGebra Notes: https://www.geogebra.org/notes.
