The Potential of GeoGebra Dynamic Mathematics Software in Teaching Analytic Geometry: The Opinion of Pre-service Mathematics Teachers
Main Article Content
Abstract
The potential of GeoGebra in teaching analytic geometry concepts was investigated in this paper. The study carried out with case study methodology and the participants were 6 pre-service mathematics teachers at 3rd grade of elementary mathematics education. All of the participants had the skill of well self-expression and they were volunteers for interview. Two participants were at high achievement levels, two participants were at medium achievement levels and two participants were low achievement levels. While carrying out each lesson, participants used worksheets which were prepared by the researchers. The data were obtained by semi-structured interviews which were carried out at the end of the courses and the data were analyzed with content analysis method. Research results showed that using dynamic mathematics software while studying on analytic geometry provides convenience for the participants and they felt more active while they were using software in the learning environment.
