Arloon Geometry

In an earlier post I talked about the importance of introducing new technologies in primary education so I will not stop to repeat the great benefits they have. This time I was thinking of one of the facets that it is harder to develop in many children, which is the spatial vision.

There are students who have a great ability to "dislodge" figures in their mind, but there are others who find it impossible and tend to give up because they do not find any motivation or usually receive another option when it comes to learning.

The only alternative technique I have seen in schools is the classic photocopy in which we can see a decomposed figure and we can cut it to see it in 3D, but this system has several drawbacks: it takes a lot of paper or cardboard, it takes a lot In making a single figure when they need to know many, the end result usually breaks quickly and is not useful when working the most theoretical exercises...

That is why I think we have to provide an education adapted to all students, because if we get everyone to understand the concepts needed in a more enjoyable, simple and fast, the group environment of the class is much more likely to be positive.

Looking for a solution to this problem I found an application that I found very interesting and that could solve many of the problems related to this field, I am talking about the application "Arloon Geometry".

This application is available in Windows, iOS and Android, so there should be no problems for their installation, they will be able to observe the geometric bodies from all possible perspectives, as well as the way in which they unfold their faces in flat figures, in a way In which they can manipulate it at will which will help them build their knowledge.

It is a true digital experience that combines conceptual contents (definitions and characteristics) with procedural ones (application of formulas and calculation). In addition to being fully curricular with the contents of mathematics, its themes are available in Spanish and English, ideal for bilingual schools.

In addition, this type of learning is also much more respectful of diversity, since it allows a much freer learning in which each student can follow their own pace, which is very important so that the anxiety that can produce the mathematics to Those who have the most difficulties and for the students with high capacities gives them the opportunity to experience everything they want to satisfy their desire for learning.

Here is a small video explaining how this incredible educational application works:
