Mathematics of Motion Using GeoGebra

Abstract

In today's world, students are surrounded by computer games and animations. Teachers can take advantage of the appeal of such games by designing animations as tools to motivate students to understand the concepts of mathematics and science behind the scenarios or applications. When students realize how they can move an object on screen, they will want to understand the mathematical formulas involved in the dynamics of the situation. The dynamic mathematics software GeoGebra allows users to insert a picture into a file and manipulate that picture by changing its position on the screen.
