Advanced Euclidean Geometry: Excursions for Students and Teachers
With Illustrations in The Geometers Sketchpad®
Alfred S. Posamentier, City College, The City University of New York
State curriculum standards are mandating more coverage of geometry, as are the curricula for pre-service mathematics education and in-service teaching. Yet many secondary teachers know just enough geometry to stay one chapter ahead of their students! Whats more, most college-level geometry texts dont address their specific needs.
Advanced Euclidean Geometry fills this void by providing a thorough review of the essentials of the high school geometry course and then expanding those concepts to advanced Euclidean geometry, to give teachers more confidence in guiding student explorations and questions.
The text contains hundreds of illustrations created in The Geometers Sketchpad Dynamic Geometry® software. It is packaged with a CD-ROM (for Windows®/Macintosh® formats) containing over 100 interactive sketches using Sketchpad (assumes that the user has access to the program).
This title is available through your college bookstore and is also available packaged with a specially priced Student Bundle Package of The Geometers Sketchpad version 4. Contact your Key College Publishing sales representative.
Instructor Resources will be available to qualified adopters. Publication will follow publication of the text.
