Dr. Katarzyna Winkowska-Nowak, Director for the Fully Online Master of Science in Teaching Mathematics, organized the 2025 Florida GeoGebra Conference with cooperation of Stiles-Nicholson STEM Teacher Academy, and the GeoGebra Team.
The conference was held at Stiles-Nicholson Brain Institute Jupiter FAU campus on Monday, February 24, 2025. The Florida GeoGebra 2025 conference was a transformative, free event for educators and math enthusiasts filled with inspiration and innovation.
The theme for this year’s Florida GeoGebra 2025 was GeoGebra Past, Present, and Future. Conference participants included K-12 teachers, college educators, and anyone passionate about math education and technology. Educators attending the conference learned about GeoGebra’s journey and its growing impact on education. Steve Phelps, a power user and teacher from Cincinnati, Ohio, offered two workshops: “Intuition, Simulation, Revision, and Calculation” and “What-If-Not? Prove Like This!” These workshops provided conference participants skills to help them master teaching probability and inference concepts and an opportunity to explore creative proof strategies to engage students in geometry.
Samantha Cruz, a member of the GeoGebra Team from Florida, with collaboration with Gregory Petrics, NVU-Johnson, presented a workshop on “AI and GeoGebra,” designed to introduce artificial intelligence concepts in the classroom using GeoGebra. Samantha Cruz also presented and workshop, “GeoGebra and Python for Teachers: A practical session for educator”. The day was filled with educational experiences, collaboration, vibrant discussion and some fun as well!
