[en] GeoGebra is free, multi-platform, open-source dynamic mathematics software with rapidly growing worldwide popularity. The basic idea of the software is to join dynamic geometry, algebra, and calculus, which other packages treat separately, into a single easy-to-use package for learning and teaching mathematics from elementary through university level. Participants of this workshop will be introduced to the versatile possibilities of GeoGebra in hands-on activities in geometry, algebra, and calculus. They will learn how to use GeoGebra as a visualization tool for teaching and to create student-engaging interactive online materials. Free software and materials will be provided. No special computer experience is required.
