Teaching and Learning Calculus with Free Dynamic Ma- thematics Software GeoGebra

Year: 2008
Type: conference-paper
Abstract: Research suggests that despite the numerous benefits of using technology in mathematics education, the process of embedding technology in classrooms is slow and complex (Cuban, Kirkpatrick, & Peck, 2001). GeoGebra is open-source software for mathematics teaching and learning that offers geometry, algebra and calculus features in a fully connected and easy-to-use software environment. It is available free of charge and used by thousands of students and teachers around the world in classrooms and at home. In this presentation we will both present applications of GeoGebra for calculus teaching at the high school and college level, as well as raise some of the implications of free and easy-to-use software such as GeoGebra for technology integration into the teaching and learning of calculus.
