Abstract
A geometry class participated in this study to research the implementation of electronic discussions, virtual manipulatives, and graphic organizers in this digital learning school to determine their effectiveness to teach conceptual and procedural knowledge of congruent triangles. Research was conducted by examining student work, test scores, student attitude surveys, and a focus group discussion. The tools were determined to be effective for teaching conceptual knowledge, but not as effective when teaching procedural knowledge.
