Florida GeoGebra Conference 2024
Katarzyna Winkowska-Nowak, Samantha Garcia, Nov 16, 2023
Join us for an interactive workshop on February 19th designed for STEM educators seeking to enhance their teaching of mathematics through the innovative use of GeoGebra. GeoGebra is a dynamic mathematics software that integrates geometry, algebra, spreadsheets, graphing, statistics, and calculus. In this workshop, we will explore how to leverage GeoGebra to create engaging and effective learning experiences in your STEM classroom. GeoGebra is open-source and free software for learning and teaching mathematics, used from early school grades through colleges and universities. GeoGebra has won many software awards and is used around the globe. (More at www.geogebra.org.) GeoGebra serves as a tool for researchers and educators to introduce innovation in teaching at all levels of education. FLGGB
