Geometer's Sketcpad

What is Geometer's Sketchpad?


The Geometer's Sketchpad (Sketchpad or GSP) is a software system published by Key Press Curriculum for

1. creating

2. exploring

3. analyzing

a wide range of mathematics.

With Sketchpad, you can

1. construct interactive mathematical models ranging from basic investigations about shape and number to advanced,

2. animated illustrations of complex systems.

Sketchpad provides a compelling environment with which to present mathematical concepts, model classroom questions, and encourage conjecturing, whether in a hands-on computer lab, on a demonstration screen before an entire class or as individual assignments (Sketchpad Help System).

Like many computer programs, Sketchpad files have their own file extension. Geometer's Sketchpad files are denoted as .gsp.
