Comparison Of Mathematics Education Software And Case Analysis Of Its Application In Mathematics Teaching

Mathematics education software as an emerging teaching aid tool effectively improves the efficiency of students in learning mathematics,and also makes teachers have more choices in teaching methods.According to the investigation and research,The Geometer's Sketchpad,Geo Gebra and Super Sketchpad are the most widely used in mathematics teachers in elementary and middle schools in my country.The research adopted questionnaire survey method,interview method and case analysis method.First of all,the relevant cases are combined to analyze and compare the functional characteristics of each software and its advantages and disadvantages in mathematics teaching;Then conduct a questionnaire survey on high school mathematics teachers to understand their use of mathematics education software in mathematics teaching;conduct one-on-one interviews with some of the teachers in the questionnaire,and let the frontline teachers evaluate and use the mathematics education software.Suggestions were made for its development;finally,three cases of application of these three kinds of software in mathematics teaching were designed for teaching reference.The research results of this paper are as follows: 1.The Geometer's Sketchpad has certain advantages in the teaching of plane geometry,and it can carry out multiple transformations and iterations on the geometry.It is an effective tool for exploring the properties and transformation laws of plane geometric figures.The function of the Super Sketchpad is very comprehensive,especially the courseware can be made,but its function is not specialized in one aspect like the other two kinds of software.Geo Gebra has advantages in the teaching of functions,solid geometry,probability and statistics,but its compatibility is not high and the operation is more complicated.2.Most teachers will use The Geometer's Sketchpad to assist teaching,followed by Geo Gebra,Super Sketchpad and other software.The three kinds of software have different audiences among teachers and have different features.Based on the comparative research of the above software and the case analysis of teaching,we have made some suggestions for teachers and software developers.For teachers,it is necessary to use mathematics education software reasonably according to the software's functional characteristics,mathematics teaching content and students' conditions,and design excellent teaching cases to assist mathematics teaching.For software developers,it is necessary to pay attention to the comprehensive performance of the software,strengthen compatibility with other software such as Power Point,Excel,and La Te X to achieve sharing;improve integration with mathematical knowledge points and mathematical problem-solving teaching.
