Using the GWS model in the conceptual development of rotation
Sažetak
The mathematical rigid transformation of rotation takes an important place in the education of geologist where structural lines and planes have often been rotated from some initial spatial orientation. Therefore, mathematical education of geologist is traditionally full of the use of instant constructive methods that need to be constantly adapted to the use of new artefacts. When using these methods, students often prefer to use previously memorized (often inaccurate) procedures rather than creating links within a given problem or drawing conclusions from a given representation. This presentation reviews some psychological and educational research to highlight the problems in connection to the conceptual understanding of transformation of rotation. The author’s teaching experience based on the use of the Geometric Working Space model is given. The GWS model enables understanding of the circulation of knowledge within a specific geometric task.
