9. Multiple Representations
GeoGebra: Bidirectional Connection
Symbolic ⇔ Graphics
Examples
– Coordinates ⇔ Point in Coordinate System
– Circle‘s Equation ⇔
Circle drawn in Coordinate System
– Function‘s Equation ⇔ Graph of Function

– Great to show you everything but better
off discovering yourselves!
16. Hands-on activities
... of this module you should:
Know more about Geogebra.
Have constructed a worksheet and succeeded in
posting it online, adding it to your journal in
BLACKBOARD.
Didactics will follow in January.
Concretely, your journal, should have:
