Development and Sharing
Some of our teaching and GeoGebra related materials can be downloaded from our GI's page: Resources These materials are designed to be shared by the community of teachers at all kinds of schools, from elementary schools to universities. There is also a growing collection of GeoGebra Tutorials from Basic to Advanced levels.
Outreach
We continue to introduce and demonstrate aspects of GeoGebra and associated modifications in pedagogy in local secondary school mathematics departments when supporting our Mathematics Education students in their school placements. We hope to run a 2-day workshop for teachers in April 2012 spanning a range of basic to advanced levels of technical expertise in GeoGebra together with modifications in pedagogy through its usage – keep an eye on our News page for detail when confirmed at [1]
