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! What’s
more, most college-level geometry texts don’t 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 Geometer’s Sketchpad
Dynamic Geometry® software, and 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).
