Functional Definitions in DGS Environments.

DGS 동적 기하에서의 새로운 함수적 관점의 정의

In this paper, we introduce new functional definitions for school geometry based on DGS (dynamic geometry system) teaching-learning environment. For the vertices forming a geometric figure, we first consider the relationship between the independent vertices and dependent vertices, and using this relationship and educational considerations in DGS, we introduce functional definitions for the geometric figures in terms of its independent vertices. For this purpose, we design a new DGS called JavaMAL MicroWorld. Based on the needs of new definitions in DGS environment for the student's construction activities in learning geometry, we also design a new DGS based geometry curriculum in which the definitions of the school geometry are newly defined and reconnected in a new way. Using these funct onal definitions, we have taught the new geometry contents emphasizing the sequential expressions for the student's geometric activities.
