Abstract

Well-known Mathematics Education theorist Hans Freudenthal argues in favor of a “guided reinvention” approach to mathematics education. I will summarize Fruedenthal’s argument and then demonstrate how the technologies of Smartboard, GeoGebra, Desmos and Elmo make Freudenthal’s vision for mathematics teaching and learning more accessible to teachers of mathematics in the modern era.
