STUDENTS’ ATTITUDES ABOUT INTEGRATING DYNAMIC GEOMETRY SOFTWARE IN TEACHING CONSTRUCTIONS IN GEOMETRY

Irina Gurevich, Achva Academic College of Education, Israel

The purpose of the research was to learn about students’ attitudes toward and evaluation of the pedagogical procedure based on integrating dynamic geometry software (DGS) in dealing with construction problems in geometry. The research population consisted of mathematical education students. It was observed that the students preferred to use DGS when dealing with construction problems and appreciated the dynamic features of DGS to a large extent, and that the developed pedagogical procedure improved the students’ mode of usage of the computerized environment. We suggest that the explored teaching procedure enables students to construct and assimilate more complete and wide-scale knowledge.
