Abstract

Uruguayhave been in the world focus due to the OLPC program, that provided every student and teacher with their own computer and delivered internet connection to every school in the whole country. Teacher’s needs emerged and several programs began. The GeoGebra Institute of Uruguay helped public educational organizations in designing and leading workshops. This process led us to focus on didactical topics and on the way we shared experiences, instead of how to use GeoGebra.  In thiscommunication we will present this process and give examples of courses and workshops curricula. We will also highlight the successful experiences we have developed.
