English abstract:
Our work introduces immersive collaborative learning to
geometry education. More specifically, we present a system that
uses collaborative augmented reality as a medium for teaching,
and uses 3D dynamic geometry to facilitate mathematics and
geometry education. Both these aspects are novel to geometry
education. We describe improvements in the user interface and
visual design of such an application. We also report on practical
experiences with using our system for actual teaching of high
school students, and present initial quantitative data on the
educational value of such an approach.

Keywords:
Geometry education, computer supported collaborative work, augmented reality, user interface design
