Review by Kate Mackrell
In brief:
The software can also be used in any part of the mathematics curriculum.
“The new features of Cabri 2+ enable some very exciting mathematics indeed”
This review was written partially while attending CabriWorld 2004 conference in Rome from 9th-12th September 2004.
There are three questions that this review might help the reader to answer. The first of these is “should my school use interactive geometry software, such as Cabri or Geometer’s Sketchpad?”. The answer to this question is an unqualified “yes!”. One look at the exemplar material in the KS3 strategy will make clear the numerous ways in which this software can be used in shape and space in KS3/4. The software can also be used in any part of the mathematics curriculum in which visual images can enhance learning. One can create, for example, pictures of decimal numbers, or link dynamic models and graphs...
