In addition, we are also working on a book on College Geometry with GeoGebra (the title has not been finalized yet).  Hopefully, it will be tried out this school year  and will be published late this year or early next year.

We are also planning to have Level 1 and 2 GeoGebra trainings this summer (April-May, no definite date yet). If you are interested, please email me at gip@gmail.com or mathandmultimedia@gmail.com.

GeoGebra Extra: Properties of Mathematical Objects

Each mathematical object in GeoGebra has its own properties.  Some of the properties of a line, for example, are its equation, color, and thickness; while a slider has  maximum, minimum, increment, and animation properties.

The properties of mathematical objects in GeoGebra can be modified using the Object Properties window.  The Object Properties window can be shown by right-clicking a particular object and choosing Object Properties from pop-up menu as shown in the first figure.

It is important to note that some properties are unique to a particular object, and some are common to many. For instance, most mathematical objects have the color property, while decoration properties are only available to lines and angles. » Read more
