Conference Paper: The world of geometry in the classroom: Virtual or real?
| Title | The world of geometry in the classroom: Virtual or real? |
|---|---|
| Authors | |
| Issue Date | 2009 |
| Publisher | The Department of Education, University of Crete. |
| Citation | The 5th International Colloquium on the Didactics of Mathematics, Crete, Greece, 17 - 19 April 2008 How to Cite? |
| Abstract | Despite the occurrence of the word “virtual” in the title, this is not a lecture on DGE (dynamic geometry
environment), albeit I may have occasion to touch on that at some point. This lecture discusses the
significance and the meaning of studying geometry in school, the content and evolution of the subject, in
particular, attempts to design in the classroom a “world of geometry” that bridges the virtual (abstract)
world and the real (concrete) world. It is expected that in this way, students will feel more at home instead
of being alienated from the subject. |
