Course content
Exercises:. 1. GeoGebra 2D - familiarization with a user interface, possibilities of the software setup, software control, entering 2D objects, figures. The denotation of the drawn objects. Drawing of the basic planar geometric figures. Planar transformations. Creation of online GeoGebra book. 2. GeoGebra 2D - the creation of the 2D geometric warm-ups. 3. GeoGebra 2D - the creation of dynamic lecture of a planimetry topic. 4. GeoGebra 2D - solution of the school geometry planimetric tasks. Construction protocol. Automatic drawing of the construction. 5. GeoGebra 2D - track of an object and animation, the creation of dynamic pictures. 6. GeoGebra 2D - the creation of one´s own teaching material (including geometric warm-ups, problems for explanation and for practice) for the chosen planimetry chapter taught at the secondary school or at the high school. 7. GeoGebra 3D - familiarization with a user interface, insertion of 3D geometric objects. 3D drawing - the creation of 3D warm-ups, problems of the spontaneous stereometry. 8. GeoGebra 3D - solution of the school stereometric positional problems 9. GeoGebra 3D - solution of the school stereometric metric problems 10. GeoGebra 3D - solution of the school stereometric construction problems 11. GeoGebra 3D - the creation of one´s own teaching material (including stereometry warm-ups, problems for explanation and for practice) of the chosen stereometric chapter taught at the elementary school or at the secondary school 12. GeoGebra 3D - presentation of the created teaching materials ----- The range of lessons for extra-mural study: 8 hours/semester

Learning activities and teaching methods
Self-study (text study, reading, problematic tasks, practical tasks, experiments, research, written assignments), Seminár, E-learning, Students' portfolio
  • Class attendance - 28 hours per semester
  • Preparation for credit - 32 hours per semester
Learning outcomes
Repetition of basic planimetric and some stereometric constructional tasks. Work with the geometric software GeoGebra. Familiarization with the user interface and with the use of the software. Creation of planimetric and stereometric warm-ups, constructional tasks, the creation of dynamic applets or 3D models of selected objects. Creation of GeoGebra book.
The practical usage of freeware geometric program GeoGebra focused on creating applets in the fields of 2D and 3D computer graphics.
Prerequisites
Knowledge of secondary school geometry (planimetry and stereometry), especially knowledge of planimetric and stereometric constructional problems.

Assessment methods and criteria
Student's performance analysis

Credit: - Active participation in exercises. - Successful submission of semestral work - separate creation of 2 geometric warm-ups (one planimetric and one stereometric geometric warm-ups) and of 2 constructional problems (one planimetric and one stereometric constructional problems, both containing assignment and solution of the particular problem) in the GeoGebra software.
