Exploring the impact of GeoGebra on preservice teachers’ proficiency in teaching grade 10 parabola functions by Abongile Ngwabe, Marc Schafer

“…This paper investigates the development of teaching proficiency among preservice teachers in Grade 10 parabola functions through the use of GeoGebra. A significant number of preservice teachers encounter challenges in effectively teaching parabola functions due to limited resources for illustrating complex mathematical relationships, which can impede both their teaching proficiency and the students' conceptual understanding. …”
