Sketchpad®, TinkerPlots®, and Fathom®: Using Dynamic Geometry® Software Tools Strategically
Abstract
The Common Core State Standards for Mathematics (CCSSM) include overarching Standards for Mathematical Practice that cite dynamic geometry® software as one of the tools mathematically proficient students should know how to use strategically. Dynamic geometry software or more generally, dynamic mathematics software, provides visible and tangible representations of mathematical concepts that can be dragged and manipulated to discover underlying properties, investigate patterns and relationships, and develop deeper understandings of the concepts. The Geometer’s Sketchpad®, TinkerPlots®, and Fathom® are examples of dynamic mathematics software. This chapter outlines how dynamic mathematics software supports the CCSSM. Specific mathematic content examples are described using these three resources to model the use of dynamic mathematics software for learning mathematics. Challenges for successfully integrating dynamic mathematics software are described with suggestions for training and support.
