Abstract
The interactive online platforms Desmos and GeoGebra can be used to support students' development of conceptual understanding in mathematics. They provide opportunities to support algebraic manipulations with visual representations, facilitate the derivation of formulas and procedures, and can help students verify and make sense of their answers. These platforms can also be used to increase student interest and engagement while promoting a student-centered classroom environment. This chapter presents several practical ideas for using these free platforms in the context of an Algebra 2 unit on trigonometry and a Precalculus unit on lines and planes in space. Selection, creation, modification, and implementation of resources are discussed.
