ROJAS TORRES, Ana  y  CECILIA GRATEROL, Elizabeth. Progress of the learning in geometry using a mathematics software. uct [online]. 2006, vol.10, n.38, pp.67-72. ISSN 2542-3401.

The study analyzes the progress made in the conceptual, procedimental and attitude context in the learning process of teachers in their forming in the specialty of Mathematics, in the Barquisimeto Teachers College (U.P.E.L), taking as an example the subject, geometry I using Cabri Géomètre II educational software, is of explanatory trait, of nature study of cases. For its development, analysis criteria are designed from a constructive perspective, with which each one of the above mentioned contexts are evaluated. The corresponding information collected and analyzed under these aspects produced some of the following conclusions: The learning of the conceptual contents got less progress regarding learning of the procedimental, fact that attribute it to the use of the education software. As regards the learning process of the attitude, it was evidenced that the Informatics Laboratory classes using Cabri Géomètre II software experimented more enthusiasm and interest in geometry I as regards the students, on account of the potentialities of this software, in relationship with the handling of the geometrical objects
