Abstract
The interactive whiteboard can transform mathematics classroom and improve the
mathematics learning environment for teachers and pupils. GeoGebra can also provide
teachers with new ways to lead and support pupils’ learning. However teachers do not
always recognise the opportunities offered. In this plenary I will look at the use of gesture
and other ways in which teachers might make the most of the interactive whiteboard when
using GeoGebra.

Files for ths will be placed on the site by the end of Wednesday 31 August. They will include an ActivStudio 3 version, ActivInspire and Smart Notebook versions. These will be interactive but you need to have the software available. A pdf version will also be available but this will only contain pictures of the slides. I will also place some GeoGebra files on the site.
The talk can be seen on YouTube at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y137GL29rQU
