Technological Tools to Teach the Idea of Optimality
Reinhard Oldenburg · Qeios · 2024
Optimization is a fundamental idea of mathematics, yet it is not that much in the focus of widespread digital teaching tools. The paper first explores the relevance of optimality and then shows how the idea is supported in the FeliX dynamic geometry online system. The idea is to include optimality statements together with equality statements as means to describe geometric scenes. Some reports from teaching experiences are discussed as well.
