Historically, Geometry has been an area that students have done quite poorly in in standardised testing. In this course Dr Paul Swan will take you through the concepts of Geometry and present some activities you can use in the classroom to get across vital geometric ideas.
The video duration is 55-minutes, meaning a 1-hour session is required at least, though if you want to try the activities yourself please budget another 20 minutes. The course can be broken up into two 45-minute sessions in this way.
This PL Video goes together with the free “A Guide to Geometry” and “Geometry Review Guide” booklets available on drpaulswan.com.au/resources
Session Organisers are encouraged to prepare (per group – optional):
Guide to Geometry and Geometry Review Guide (optional) (from the resources page)
