Abstract:
The aim of the article is focusing on the importance of information and communication technologies used in mathematical education. Currently there are many different learning management systems (LMS) and geometric softwares suitable for teaching mathematics. We created an interactive course, which could be efficiently used in combination with face-to-face teaching. The course is focus on Didactics of Geometry and it is located in Learning Management System Moodle. E-lessons are diveded into two parts - basic planimetric concepts and basic stereometric terms. Each e-lessons containt exercises for homework. The main advantage of the course is its interactivity, what differs from traditional printed materials. The interactive elements are created by mathematical software GeoGebra and they are included directly in Moodle e-learning lessons. GeoGebra is a free and multi-platform software for all levels of education.
