[en] The principal aim of this project was to conduct research on GeoGebra-related professional development materials and approaches. The study was conducted through tight collaboration of educational researchers and mathematics teachers in England utilising frameworks of communities of inquiry (Jaworski, 2006) and collaborative design (Cobb, Confrey, diSessa, Lehrer, & Schauble, 2003). By joint collaboration and design we aimed to establish a core group of GeoGebra experts in England who can offer professional development and support for teachers. We also wanted to explore the ways in which GeoGebra can be used to enhance the teaching and learning of mathematics within the English curriculum.
