Özet:

Computers reached their real potential in education only after educators used them in constructivist ways. In order to be effective, educational software should be designed reflecting sound theories of human learning. The purpose of this study is to give an example of the use of dynamic geometry software to construct student-centered learning environments based on Piaget’s adaptation theory. Students from two 8th grade classrooms from two schools in Trabzon were taught for this study, using computer-based activities of Cabri geometry. The products and processes of student learning were analyzed and evaluated. Suggestions were made for effective use of computer-based activities in geometry education in the latter part of the article.
