Abstract:
Mathematics teaching and learning has always attracted the attention of researchers because of the results that emanate from examinations and tests. This study examines the teaching of mathematical concepts using an innovative strategy in the form of a dynamic geometry software, GeoGebra. Grade 10 learners who had some knowledge of functions in mathematics were subjected to a preliminary task and thereafter were exposed to a number of applets which concentrated on a few concepts in mathematics. The applets proved to be highly successful, with the learners also enjoying the process.
