Exporting the Dynamic Worksheet

After creating the dynamic figure you are now ready to export it as an html-page. When you export a construction from GeoGebra both the graphics window and the algebra window will be shown on the dynamic worksheet. However, you can hide the algebra window using the "View" menu if you don't need it. To save space for text on screen you should decrease the size of GeoGebra's application window by dragging its lower right corner before you proceed. If you are using the applet provided before, you don't need to worry about this.

To export your dynamic figure as a dynamic worksheet select "File" - "Export" - "Dynamic Worksheet as Web page (html)..." in the menu bar.

Tab "General"

Fill in the text fields of the appearing export dialog (Title: "Shape of a Slope Function"; Author; Date).
Add some text that should be displayed above the construction in the corresponding text field, for example: Below you can see the graph of a quadratic polynomial f(x) = -0.5 x^2 + 2 x + 4.
In the last text field you can provide tasks for your students, for example
1. Try to find out how the coordinates of point M are connected with point P and the slope m of tangent t by dragging point P with the mouse.
2. Right click (Mac OS: ctrl-click) point M and select "Trace on". When you move point P now you get the graph of the slope function of f(x). What does the shape of the slope function look like?
3. Click the little icon in the right upper corner to reset the construction. Change the values of the sliders a, b, and c and turn on the trace of point M again. What does the shape of the slope function look like when you move point P now?

Tab "Advanced"

You might want to check the applet option "Show icon to reset construction" in order to include a reset icon into your interactive applet.

Export

Click the "Export"-button and save your dynamic worksheet as "ShapeSlopeFunction.html".

Tip: We recommend to export your worksheet into a new folder as GeoGebra will create several files during the export. Do not use any space or special characters in your filename to prevent problems when using the dynamic worksheet.

Access

To access your dynamic worksheet open the html-file in a web browser.

Note: Internet Explorer may restrict interactive html pages opened from your local computer. In this case you need to click on a yellow bar at the top of your browser window and approve a security question to use the dynamic worksheet. However, this problem does not occur when you upload your dynamic worksheet to the Internet.
