GeoGebra is astonishingly powerful and seems to keep just getting better. It works brilliantly on my phone and my tablet as well as on a desktop. I will be using it a great deal more in future with all the students I teach.

Time for some new pages on GeoGebra, this collection will grow, but I wanted to bookmark the tutorials and note also how to very simply use the Data Analysis tools. Sophisticated analysis is possible of course but in moments one can copy data from a spreadsheet application to GeoGebra’s spreadsheet view and see some charts.

These Tutorials are an excellent place to start learning how to use GeoGebra. GeoGebra works not only on desktops but on phones and tablets as well.

The Manual is comprehensive and note the Quick Start tutorials which are very clear. You will also find manuals and much helpful documentation on the same page. The great thing about GeoGebra is that so much has already been written you can probably find what you need already online!

You can also use GeoGebra’s YouTube channel to watch demonstrations.

GeoGeoGebra is not just for Geometry, as mentioned above note how good it is for Statistics too, copy in those large data sets and get analysing! (GeoGebra Data Analysis as a pdf file or  PowerPoint: GeoGebra Data Analysis.)

The slides show the Classic application first which perhaps experienced users are most familiar with, followed by the newer Maths Calculators interface. If you are new to GeoGebra I would recommend using the Calculators which of course have the same functionality and more and will give consistency across the various platforms.

So much is already written for GeoGebra you can use material already written. For example thinking try MEI’s very helpful advice on the Use of Technology, also on Integrating Technology into schemes of work for older students (UK A Level  age16-18). Note that tasks are also given by type of software including GeoGebra.

Another source where you will find GeoGebra used to help students understand and explore Mathematics is Underground Maths where many tasks have associated GeoGebra resources. An Underground Mathematics search on GeoGebra reveals the extent to which it has been made use of!

Note also some excellent examples from the ATM Conference 2017.

See also Use of Technology and Statistics in the A Level series of pages.

I would like to thank MEI for an inspirational (and free) conference recently. So many good sessions including the use of GeoGebra for statistical analysis.  A highlight had to be looking at the GeoGebra 3D graphics view with our 3D glasses!
