Week 7

This week we were supposed to journal about Geogebra. I'm a little behind, I know. But the Geogebra lesson was one worth remembering so I think I'll be okay. Ashley and Elizabeth did an excellent job with Geogebra. It made me want to learn a lot more and become a Geogebra expert! Their activities were at a very good difficulty level for someone who is new with Geogebra. The difficulty progressed throughout the activities as well which was good. I liked Geogebra better than GPS. I thought it was easier to navigate my way around in Geogebra and the set up was just better for middle/high school aged students I felt like. I think it can really help students who are struggling come around and develop a deeper understanding of whatever they are learning and using Geogebra for. It lets you give multiple representations for those students who need it, and will further the understanding of the students who already have a firm grasp. Of all the modules we have done thus far I would like to work more with Geogebra. I can really see myself using it in the classroom.
