Use of the Geometer's Sketchpad in Secondary Schools

This paper presents and discusses the results of a survey of Singapore secondary school teachers' use of the Geometer's Sketchpad in their mathematics classrooms. Questionnaires were completed by 41 teachers from ten schools. Responses in the questionnaires were elicited to inform two main questions: Which geometry topics were taught using the software; and, how do teachers prefer to use the software? Findings include that the potential for classrooms to become lab-like environments is not being realized in most classrooms.
