Theoretical aspects Synergy of the two educational strategies Content and structure of a dynamic learning environment Different teaching and learning traditions Interdisciplinary aspects Dynamic mathematics software
4
Ukrainian side German side Joint work
5
Ukrainian side Students' worksheets for secondary school geometry course Dynamic learning environments with DG Implementation at Ukrainian schools Intel “Teach to the Future”
6
German side I –You – We concept Dynamic learning environments with GEONE X T Implementation at German schools Evaluation and feedback
7
Joint work Synergy of two educational models Dynamic learning environments Joint publications

Step-by-step (real-life) problem-solving tasks strategy (Real-life) problem Geometric model Conjecture Theorem Formalize Construct Investigate Test Deductive proof Analytical solution Generalization
9
I – YOU – WE I – individual work of the single student You – cooperation with a partner We – communication in the whole class
10
Synergy 1 IYOUWE Consider a problem + Formalize problem Construct Geometric Model + Test Geometric Model + Investigate + Make a conjecture + Test the conjecture Formulate final result = Theorem Deliver a deductive proof or analytical solution + Try to generalize - discussion between 2 pupils check each other - discussion with the whole class PROBLEM-SOLVING STRATEGY
11
Synergy 2 IYOUWE (Real-life) Problem ConsiderDiscussFormalize Geometric Model (GM) Construct GM Test GM Investigate GM Conjecture Make it Test conjecture Discuss. Formulate final result Theorem Deliver a deductive proof or analytical solution Test Conclusion. Try to Generalize PROBLEM-SOLVING STRATEGY
12
Practical realization The comparative study of the curricula in Ukraine and Germany Selection of topics for explorative learning environments based on a combination of the two pedagogical- educational models Collect the set of tasks for each topic
13
Practical realization Consider different types of explorative learning environments Design a learning environment Implementation in German and Ukrainian schools
14
Dynamic learning environments sequence of HTML pages including text graphics dynamic mathematics applets (GEONExT) collection of the dynamic models in DG
15
Types of explorative learning environments Getting practical skills for working in dynamic geometry packages in constructing geometrical models Gaining research skills through problem solving Gaining new knowledge through investigation
