IDevice Icon GeoGebra and Curriculum
  1. Use GeoGebra to design activities that may be used to address any of the curricula objectives on Angles and Plane Figures
  2. Contextual Application
    • Identify areas/ topics in your local curriculum where GeoGebra may be used as a pedagogical tool
    • What would be the advantages of using GeoGebra rather than existing teaching media or methodology?
    • Outline steps, tools and objects that you will need in order to address the identified local curriculum
    • indicate a possible time-frame for the contextual application of GeoGebra in your local curriculum
