About This Document: Dynamic geometry software allows new opportunities for teaching geometry by making it possible to create drawings quickly, accurately, and flexibly. At the Univeristy of Debrecen, the full-time engineering students have a weekly two hour seminar and a two hour lecture on descriptive geometry (in that period of time they study the elements of the Mongeprojection). In the past students used traditional paper and pencil methods to construct geometric objects, but we have now incorporated the use of Cinderella Dynamic Geometry Software (DGS). However, students still complete tests by using paper and pencil. This article summarizes our experiences comparing a computer-aided group with the traditional paper and pencil group. The interested reader may contact the author for more complete information and/or since this is an ongoing process more recent findings. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]
