From two authors who embrace technology in the classroom and value the role of collaborative learning comes College Geometry Using GeoGebra, a book that is ideal for geometry courses for both mathematics and math education majors. The book's discovery-based approach guides students to explore geometric worlds through computer-based activities, enabling students to make observations, develop conjectures, and write mathematical proofs. This unique textbook helps students understand the underlying concepts of geometry while learning to use GeoGebra software—constructing various geometric figures and investigating their properties, relationships, and interactions. The text allows students to gradually build upon their knowledge as they move from fundamental concepts of circle and triangle geometry to more advanced topics such as isometries and matrices, symmetry in the plane, and hyperbolic and projective geometry. Emphasizing active collaborative learning, the text contains numerous fully-integrated computer lab activities that visualize difficult geometric concepts and facilitate both small-group and whole-class discussions. Each chapter begins with engaging activities that draw students into the subject matter, followed by detailed discussions that solidify the student conjectures made in the activities and exercises that test comprehension of the material. Written to support students and instructors in active-learning classrooms that incorporate computer technology, College Geometry with GeoGebra is an ideal resource for geometry courses for both mathematics and math education majors.

From two authors who embrace technology and value the role of collaborative learning comes College Geometry Using The Geometer's Sketchpad. The book's truly discovery-based approach guides readers to learn geometry through explorations of topics ranging from triangles and circles to transformational, taxicab, and hyperbolic geometries. In the process, readers hone their understanding of geometry and their ability to write rigorous mathematical proofs. Each copy of the book comes with a CD-ROM containing Sketchpad documents that relate directly to the material in the text. These multi-page documents help readers launch into the book's activities and provide dynamic, interactive versions of all figures in the text. Readers will need access to the Sketchpad(TM) program.

College Geometry is an approachable text, covering both Euclidean and Non-Euclidean geometry. This text is directed at the one semester course at the college level, for both pure mathematics majors and prospective teachers. A primary focus is on student participation, which is promoted in two ways: (1) Each section of the book contains one or two units, called Moments for Discovery, that use drawing, computational, or reasoning experiments to guide students to an often surprising conclusion related to section concepts; and (2) More than 650 problems were carefully designed to maintain student interest.

Geometry in Action uses Sketchpad? to awaken student creativity through discovery-based learning. It supplements any college geometry course in which The Geometer's Sketchpad is used. All students must have access to The Geometer's Sketchpad.Each book is packaged with a CD-ROM for students that illustrates what is meant by geometry in action. Students explore 27 sketches prepared by the author to demonstrate Sketchpad's capabilities by dragging points to see shifts in graphs, by animating tesselations to create new patterns, and much, much more! Also included on this CD is the Poincare Disk, a Sketchpad file used to dig deeper into non-Euclidean geometry with The Geometer's Sketchpad.
