"Messing Around" in Geogebra: Online Inquiry Through Apps and Games
Main Article Content
Abstract
This article explores a problem solving strategy called "messing around" that is particularly apt for online course work in GeoGebra. While traditional math problems may require students to search deliberately for a specific solution, messing around employs a more fortuitous approach. We dissect this approach and examine multiple GeoGebra apps that support messing around by providing students with a sandbox for mathematical experimentation.
