Abstract
In the recent existing mathematics teaching in Pakistan there is need to focus on thinking
rather than achievement. For which teachers’ awareness about the mathematics teaching
according to the documented requirements along with suitable technological tool is the need
of the day. In this experimental research, the focus was to explore the awareness of the
important aspect of mathematical thinking that is generalization and the way through which
this aspect can be improved through GeoGebrain the teaching of analytic geometry at
significance level after integrating it in the experimental group of the students. To uncover
the effect of this dynamic geometry software on students’ generalization thinking and their
confidence, two groups (Experimental vs. control group) along with their sub-groups
constructed in this experimental study. The study revealed that experimental students’
generalization thinking and their confidence improved significantly with the use of Geogebra
activities. Further, the teacher’s conscious role in developing mathematical thinking is one of
the most important factors.
