U1L8 Using Technology for Constructions

In this lesson, students who haven't had the opportunity to engage with dynamic geometry technology can learn to use it to make a diagram with digital construction tools that are analogous to a compass and straightedge. Students review constructions they have done on paper and build toward more complex constructions made easier by technology. The work of this lesson connects to upcoming work because students will have the opportunity to use this technology throughout the course. The activity Digital Compass and Straightedge Construction is left open and unstructured intentionally so students have the opportunity to make sense of problems (MP1). This activity includes lesson summary videos and practice problems.
