Yevdokimov, Oleksiy (2006) Using materials from the history of mathematics in discovery-based learning. In: ICME-10 Satellite Meeting of the International Study Group on the Relations between the History and Pedagogy of Mathematics, 12-17 Jul 2004, Uppsala, Sweden.
This paper reports on attempt to integrate history of mathematics in discovery-based learning using technology. Theoretical grounding of the idea is discussed. An exploratory environment on triangle geometry is described. It is designed to support and motivate students' activities in learning through inquiry. Conjectures about properties of Lemoine point and Simson line are produced and proved by students using e-learning textbook.
