This workshop will focus on the effective teaching of geometry with
pre-constructed dynamic geometry sketches. Recent research results
indicate that it is necessary to explicitly emphasize visual
interpretation and exploration skills, and to provide focused task
questions in order for students to benefit fully from their experiences
with pre-constructed dynamic geometry sketches. The group will discuss
these issues in light of examples created with interactive geometry
software, specifically with Geometer's Sketchpad and with Cinderella.
