Computer programmes

In recent years, there has been a big advance in technology. We have to take these resources into account and take advantages of their benefits to apply them in the classroom. 

Some computer programmes very useful in geometry are: 

1. GEOGEBRA

This program is an interactive sofware that allows us to work and build geometric shapes, measure angles... It is a very interesting tool with thich the students, through their computers, cna work with it. Although this tool is more suitable for basic secondary levels, to make geometric shapes and angles, primary students could use it without any problem. 

2. CABRI-GEOMETRE

It is the oldest of the geometric programmes, so it is also the one that more users has. This includes analytical, transformational and Euclidean geometry. In it, you can build lines, geometric shapes, angles and so forth. The problem to use this application is that it is not free, but there is a trial version, which only can be used for 15 minutes per session. 

3. DR. GEO

This program is very similar to the Cabri-Geometre, geometric constructions can be formed, by points, straights, midpoints, angles,... It is a free programme, but it is a programme that can only be used on a LINUX platform.
