Description
Summary:Dynamic geometry software is changing the way we teach and learn geometry. In this article, we review a selection of new results, published during thé last five years, which were found by secondary students using mostly this type of software. Sorne of these solutions represen! new mathematical findings. The amount anddepth of the problerns solved in such a short time gives an idea of the potential for growth that technology, and in particular this software brings to the mathematics classroom.
