GeoGebra Tutorials
- 1. INTRODUCTION
- 2. What is GeoGebra? • GeoGebra is a dynamic mathematics open source (free) software for learning and teaching mathematics in schools. It was developed by Markus Hohenwarter and an international team of programmers. They did a brilliant job and we as mathematics teachers and lecturers must salute them. This Dynamic Mathematics Software is for all levels of education that brings together geometry, algebra, functions, spreadsheets, graphing, statistics, and calculus in one easy-to-use package. You can download and use it for free.
- 3. Geogebra Classic Features • Geometry, Algebra and Spreadsheet are connected and fully dynamic • Computer Algebra System (CAS) for symbolic calculations • 3D Graphics View available • Easy-to-use interface, yet many powerful features • Authoring tool to create interactive learning materials as web pages • Open source software available freely for non commercial users.
- 4. Perspectives and Views • What are perspectives? Depending on the mathematics you want to use GeoGebra Classic for, you can select one of the default Perspectives. Each Perspective displays those Views and other user interface components most relevant for the corresponding field of mathematics.
- 5. Perspectives and Views GeoGebra Classic provides the following Perspectives for mathematical objects: Graphing CAS 3D Graphics Geometry Spreadsheet Probability
- 6. Perspectives and Views Each Perspective offers its own Toolbar that contains a selection of Tools and range of Commands as well as Predefined Functions and Operators that allow you to create dynamic constructions with different representations of mathematical objects.
- 7. You can switch to another Perspective at any time by selecting the Menu button in the upper right corner of the GeoGebra Classic app and selecting the Perspective you want from the Perspectives menu. How to switch between perspectives
