In order to adpat to the current and future needs of society, thereform of vocational education is being deepened. The highervocational education, for the purpose to improve the capability andquality of students, focuses on cultivating their innovative spirit andpratical ability. The series of issues like how to improve the classroomteaching of mathematics in the vocational school, how to improve thelearning efficiency of mathematics, and how to make mathematicsclosely connected with the specialized knowledge have become hottopics of mathematics professors. A new topic is about inroducing themathematical experiments into classroom learning.In this paper, the author tries to study the theoretial andpractical design of mathematical experiments, combined with his dailyteaching of mathematics. This paper theoretically analyses theadvantages of experimental teaching of dynamic geometry based onsuper sketchpad over traditional teaching. It also analyses the effect ofexperimental teaching of mathematics on the learning feedback fromstudents, the teaching methods of teachers, and the mathematicaland vocational studying.This paper explores the experimental teaching of dynamicgeometry based on super sketchpad in the higher vocational schoolfrom four aspects:1. It elaborates the necessity and feasibility of the experimentalteaching of mathematics in the higher vocational school. In this part,the author talks about the recognition of mathematical experiments bycombining his own teaching experience and the circumstances ofexperimental teaching of mathematics at home and abroad, analysesthe necessity of carrying out mathematical experiments according tothe needs of teaching reform and course reform and the needs of teaching and learning, and also elaborates the feasibility of using SuperSketchpad software platform for teaching through the analysis of itsproperties and characteristics.2. It analyses the effect of experimental teaching ofmathematics in higher vocational school. During the teaching practice,the author picks out some important and difficult cases from teachingmaterials. He uses the intuitive and dynamic Geometers Sketchpadsoftware platform to teach the keys and difficulties. He illustrates theeffect on the learning feedback and future vocational study of thestudents from his actual teaching process.3. It carries out the experiments and tests on the effects ofexperimental teaching of dynamic geometry based on supersketchpad. It includes the quasi-experimental design, questionnairesand interviews, the statistics, study and analysis of the academic resultsand interest of experimental classes and controlling classes. It alsoincludes the feedback and suggestions on this study from mathematicsteachers and specialized teachers at school.4. Through the analysis of the comparison of experimental data,combined with exchanges of the questionnaires and interviews, itcomes to the following conclusions:(1) The experimental teaching of dynamic geometry based onSuper Sketchpad has the positive impact on the learning of students,maily from the aspects of students understanding of concepts,improvement of students problem-solving ability and their interest inmathematics, and improvement of students learning enthusiasm andinitiative on certain extent.(2) It will both change the teaching methods and students learningmethods. That mathematical experiment introduced into the classroommakes the traditional mathematical teaching changed greatly. Itchanges the teachers teaching methods and improve the students learning process, mobilizes students subjectivity and initiative. Byintroducing some specialized knowledge during the experimentalteaching, it makes the mathematical learning helpful for the futurevocational study, thereby allows students to learn the real "usefulmathematics".In the last part, the paper lists the limitation of the study, while givessome suggestions on the experimental teaching of dynamic geometrybased on super sketchpad in higher vocational school.
