[de] Wie wir heute wissen, ist die Integration von Technologie im Klassenzimmer trotz zahlreicher Vorteile für den Mathematikunterricht ein langwieriger und komplexer Prozess. Der Zugang zur Technologie allein reicht für die meisten Lehrpersonen nicht aus, um die Vorteile des Technologie-Einsatzes in vollem Umfang zu nutzen. Das Poster umreißt die Entwicklung der kostenlosen, quellenoffenen und plattformunabhängigen dynamischen Mathematik Software GeoGebra, die Geometrie und Algebra miteinander verbindet. Des weiteren werden Ideen und Pläne für die Einrichtung eines Internationalen GeoGebra Instituts (IGI) vorgestellt, welches Fortbildung und Unterstützung für Lehrkräfte bieten sowie Forschung im Zusammenhang mit GeoGebra koordinieren soll. [en] Research suggests that, for the majority of teachers, solely providing technology is insufficient for the successful integration of technology into their teaching (Cuban, Kilpatrick and Peck 2001). It has been suggested that adequate training and collegial support increase teachers' willingness to integrate technology into their teaching and to develop successful technology-assisted teaching practices (Becker, Ravitz and Wong 1999). Our aim is to establish an International GeoGebra Institute (IGI) to be able to offer free structured training and support for teachers who are ready to integrate GeoGebra into their classrooms. In addition, we endeavour to organise and coordinate research projects in relation to GeoGebra to enhance the development of training and support materials. Whereas our initial plan is to establish an IGI site at Florida Atlantic University (USA), in the long run our goal is to collaborate with colleagues and set up other institutes in various locations around the world.
