The wide application of modern information technology has a profound impact on the content of mathematics curriculum,classroom teaching,mathematics learning and so on.The teaching of integrated technology has greatly improved the cognitive environment and provided a broader approach to knowledge transfer and storage.At present,there are many mathematics teaching software developed and popularized at home and abroad,and articles on teaching and research of software are also comperhensible.Though many front-line teachers are still perplexed by the software selection and application.Questions such as "Do you use?" "Who should I use?" "How to use?" and "How effective?" are frequently asked.This paper is based on the representative mathematics software named The Geometer's Sketchpad(version 5.06)and other two mathematics softwares Linglong Sketchpad(version 6.045)and Hawgent Dynamics Mathematics(version 1.0.9.96).This paper aims to explore and study from the following two aspects.In the concluding part,suggestions on software selection and application will be given.?.software comparison.First of all,in order to master these three software's function attributes,operation characteristics and the effects,it is required to learn the operation methods with the level of skillful operation and application.Then,the common analysis of the three softwares are performed from dynamic,intuitive and mathematical respectively.Finally,the specialities of the three softwares are compared and analyzed from the aspects of interface designing,operation mode and presentation mode.The research in this part mainly starts from functional characteristics of software,combining with the analysis of examples and theories,and proposes in two aspects.The first one provides software users with the following three suggestions on how to choose the software.(1)Easy to get: The software is easy to obtain,the installation procedure is simple,the compatibility is strong,and no special platform is required.(2)Easy to learn: The software is easy to use.Frombeginners to beginners,the time spent should not be excessive.(3)Easy to use: The software is almost perfect in different functions and easy to operate.With a certain tool kit and material library,it can be directly called in line with mathematical practice,suitable for mathematics classroom teaching.The second one is the following three suggestions for the developers of dynamic mathematical software:(1)The software should meet the requirements of actual teaching,conduct research activities for the front-line teachers and improve the software according to the feedback.(2)There are more shortcut kits and materials which can be directly invoked by the user.(3)The operation is simple and supreme,which conforms to mathematical thinking.It Uses program and code to expand the software's functionality.?.Software applications.First of all,the research collected and learned relevant knowledge through the Chinese periodical full-text database,school library and other channels.Using the literature analysis method,this paper makes a theoretical reflection on the integration of mathematics education technology into classroom teaching.Then,through theoretical reflections and experience results,three principles of the production and designing of dynamic mathematics software courseware are discussed: the principle of combination of science and practice,the principle of combination of specificity and abstraction,and the principle of combination of number and motion.Then,it discusses the application of dynamic mathematics software in classroom teaching: applicability principle,appropriateness principle and timely principle.Finally,the three strategies for integrating dynamic mathematics into classroom teaching are explored: Dynamic Multiple-Relation,Visualized Cognitive Process,Clearly-Identified Cognitive Results.This part develops with the study in teaching practice,discussions on how to use technology to assist classroom teaching,and impacts on teaching of integration of technology.The research shows that the students' math performance and mathematics learning emotional attitude have been improved after the integration of technology.Through the specific comparison and application research of these three softwares,it is founded that domestic software is also competitive in mathematics teaching functions,and it can be improved according to domestic teaching practice.It is practically used in Chinese education.Promoting excellent domestic software in education informatization is necessary.
