• GeoGebra as an Animation Tool

    I’ve been writing lessons about transformations, using GeoGebra in every unit, and having fun with it! Last year’s Unit Performance Task was a little, um, boring, so I’ve been thinking about how I could make it more fun and more open-ended. Here’s what I’m thinking. Students must use one or more of the transformation tools to make an animated gif or GeoGebra html5 file. Then they can upload it to their digital portfolios. Why not use the same techniques that animators use – translation, reflection, rotation, and dilation? This is gonna be fun! Here are my first attempts. Enjoy!
