Exploration on Geometer Sketchpad


It's something way new for us..we never know that by just using this geometer sketchpad...not only merely drawing shapes but this software can help teachers to determine the coordinates of the shapes when being labelled...We wonder it can also teach tesselations and formation of shapes.

However, we felt that the teacher should be well-verse in this software first before introducing them to the learners..as we know young learners tend to rely to teachers when they are expose to new materials..

thank you for trying..
but sorry for the lack in the explanations..coz we ourselves not really familiar with those softwares..indeed we only just figure out the use of GSP as one of the tools to teach geometry during our presentation..hehe
