Studying stereometry with dynamic constructions
Keywords:
studying stereometry, dynamic constructions, dynamic softwareAbstract
The content and methodology of the “Studying Stereometry with Dynamic Constructions” professional development course for teachers are described. Examples of educational resources for the study of geometric solids are presented: computer models of geometric solids, their nets and sections; manipulatives. Optimization problems with three-dimensional objects are discussed, as well as problems for the development of eyeball estimation skills. They are freely accessible at the Virtual Mathematics Laboratory, developed at the Institute of Mathematics and Informatics of BAS.
