Abstract
Globally, research and evaluation reports show that students are not learning
congruency-based proofs, as part of the Geometry section of mathematics, efficiently.
One identifier of student understanding related to geometry is the teacher’s method of
instruction. In order to attain success in mathematics the understanding of proofs and
writing of proofs are of utmost importance. In this regard, web-based learning could be
used in school mathematics to enhance activities involving “proof”. Proofs are the heart
of mathematics and digital resources may be used to teach learners effectively, starting
from primary school level.
