Software for Geometry

I've found a free software that can help students learn about geometry, that's GeoGebra. You can google it, or just download it @ this site:
www.geogebra.org/download/

At first using the software, may be you'll be a little bit confused, but that's okay. You just have to be patient, and explore it more and more. If you have problem or any questions, you can try the Help menu. To make it easier to learn, just think about that program as a new game you need to master. That's it. You can try to look at the question in your textbook, and after you read the concept for awhile, just try to answer the question using the program. It's trial and error, and don't be afraid to try and err, coz you know what, it's just a game. You can die, and rise again, and of course, play again. ^_^ So.....good luck!

Well, I've been thinking about giving the students a simple task to complete before the mid-term exam (about geometry topic) so that they can understand the topic better. But, let's see in a month, if I can finish in writing the instructions. And once again, if the teacher give you any problem or task to do, don't be scared, just think about that as a challenge in a game you need to win. Just have fun in doing it. God bless!
