GeoGebra Book: Geometry Collected Resources

This GeoGebra book collects activities for use in the study of Geometry. It includes all of the public activities written by Dr. Jackson along with some of the best activities written and made publicly available by other mathematics educators. This collection includes activities used with Dr. Jackson's College Geometry course. In that course, he works simultaneously in Taxicab, Hyperbolic, and Spherical Geometry along with the traditional Euclidean Geometry. In particular, Dr. Jackson has created two activities: Spherical Geometry Environment and Unified Geometry Environment. The Spherical Geometry Environment has custom tools for working in Spherical Geometry. The Unified Geometry Environment has tools for working in Euclidean, Taxicab, and Hyperbolic Geometries. The model used for Hyperbolic Geometry is the Beltrami-Poincare Half-plane model. These environments have non-Euclidean versions of all of the built-in Euclidean Geometry tools. Be sure to open them in the app to have access to the tools. Because of the number of custom tools, these files may open slowly. While this collection includes some activities for a more advanced course, most of these activities are also appropriate for a high school course in Geometry and some are appropriate for elementary and middle level students..
